Dream Angel is a clean and clear perfume. A light bouquet of florals make this smell like the clean warm skin of a woman.

Quiet, Soft, green, musky, and pencil shavings (sandalwood).
A bit more into the opening/beginning heart and still pointed, green, pencil shavings, but soft, not loud or obtrusive.
Still soft green, lightly sweet, gentle-watery-accord that smells like clean, lily-pads on water. Slight pencil shavings still, in the background.
Finding this one very pleasant; it is so similar to the Victoria's Secret 2000 EdP formula.
Mid-way point, this still is very soft, pleasant, a bit green, even maybe fruity, watery, and even lip-glossy- that kind of watery-melon-like accord- but very-very-VERY softly so.
This Dream Angel Type has a lighter/more white musk than the Dream Angel Heavenly Type, which has a "dirtier" musk. There is also a greener/watery accord in this oil than in the Heavenly type oil which has no green/watery accord.
This Dream Angel Type, to my nose, most definitely continues to smell like the 2000 EdP version of the Victoria's Secret perfume.
Both this version's oil Type and the Dream Angel Heavenly oil Type version are INCREDIBLY light perfumes without much sillage. Any sillage from the actual EdP, EdT, or Body Spray versions from Victoria's Secret would be from the alcohol content. So, if you're using the oil here, you're not going to get a huge amount of sillage.
Final Dry down... Sweet, clean skin accord, the smallest touch of powder. The VS 2000 EdP and this oil Type are very, very close in odor all the way through from application to dry down.
I would say this and the Dream Angel Heavenly Type are, indeed, very different fragrances.

I have several other oils from TFS that are "types" of designer perfumes that I own or have owned and they totally nail the fragrance every time (and I actually like TFS oil form MUCH better), but with Dream Angel it's no where near similar. Don't get me wrong, this fragrance is gorgeous but it's not a dupe for VS's Dream Angel. In fact, their listed notes on their DA are completely different from the designer's and the two aren't even in the same fragrance family! VS categorizes DA as an "Oriental Woody Gourmand" (very gourmand to me, vanilla & jellybeans at first impression) and TFS lists theirs as an Oriental-floral (and it is very floral, definitely no trace of gourmand). I reached out in 2 emails to see if maybe there was some confusion over which VS fragrance was being duped here since VS has like 6 perfumes that have the words 'dream' and 'angel' in some sort of combination but I never got a response :'(
