I really enjoy this fragrance. It's just lovely. I don't recall ever smelling the original so I cannot compare this oil.
I don't think it's for fans of the really fresh, citrus-y.
This starts off smelling like incense to me, then vanilla and sandalwood. It's really nice.

I got this as my sample and omg it’s amazing! It’s gourmand but doesn’t smell like all the other gourmands out there, a bit unique! Lasts a long time too, I put it on 5 hours before the gym and thought it had worn off enough but it revitalized in the heat. Probably not great for the other gym goers but now I know this one has great staying power. I’m so glad I got it as my sample!

I received this as a sample with an order and I am so happy TFS selected this one for me!!! This is the type of oil I put on and cannot stop sniffing my wrist, it just smells so delicious! It's sweet with a little fruity yet sexy twist. I don't know what the original smells like because I gave up on regular perfume sprays years ago so I can't compare the two BUT this smells so great it doesn't even matter :-)

I love, love, love the Queen bottled perfume, but the Fragrance Shop oil is even better. The scent is very close to the original & lasts forever. I have fallen in love with this particular oil.
