It's the same as Carnal Flower, just buy it!
This review is for the body oil roll-on. I included my review of the same scent in the perfume spray below. As for the roll-on, it smells like a Carnal Flower only much less projection because the oil is intended to have the scent close on the skin - and also applied before before spaying on the perfume - layering - makes the scent last longer. It is a lovely scent and true to the original - I have the original hair and body oil of Carnal Flower and thus CA creation is the same! I also have the original perfume. The scent of this dupe is the same - and I have a sense of smell that is very sensitive - I should really have been what they call "a nose" in the perfume industry. Too bad I didn't know it was a real job!Here's my review of the spray:I bought this based off of user reviews. They all gave this 5 stars for the smelling just like the perfume it us intended to copy.They were right!!This smells exactly like Frederick Malle Carnal Flower at first spray and long after first spray! As it melts into the middle notes it stays true to the original and then actually smells a bit nicer as it gets to the bottom notes. Something sharp in the original is toned down here (thankfully) so I say this is a winner all around! If you love Carnal Flower - you will love this more. Lasts long - I could still smell it on my skin the next day (more than 24 hours later) and it is lovely! The projection is a tiny bit less than equal to the original but that is good because perfumes shouldn't scream your arrival BEFORE you walk into a room!They also gifted me a refillable purse sized spray container (and it's very pretty) to fill up and take along! Although, you would only need to take it along if you will be gone a few days because this perfume lasts!I am now willing to try other perfumes from this company because it seems they care about quality. The set came in a beautiful box and it all made a beautiful high-end presentation. I tried the perfume oil as well, also wonderfully for layering. Not as much projection as the spray but that is the way it should be!This dupe has no strange smelling fillers or alchohols that ruin so many other dupes. This one will not be in the markdown bin at the dollar store - this perfume is a keeper! At these prices, enjoy it every day and not just on special occasions!I live the original - it is a marvelous scent that I had to have once I tried a sample. Only it was pretty pricey - CA perfumes have taken care of that and really knocked this one out of the park!Stop reading reviews and just buy it already!

LDBS, Baccarat 540, & TF Tobacco Vanielle Review
I bought the rollerball size dupes for Love Don’t Be Shy, Baccarat 540, and TF Tobacco Vanille, but there’s not a way to write separate reviews for them so I’ll review all three in one review.First up is LDBS. This dupe definitely did not disappoint. I no longer have the original but know the scent fairly well. I stopped into Sephora a few days ago and sprayed the tester on my pulse points. I was so tempted to purchase at full price but decided I’d wait for the CA dupe to arrive first. So glad I waited because the scents are incredibly similar from the first spray through the dry down.The scent does fade more quickly than I’d like, but that goes for the original and the dupe. It’s much easier to justify to reapply when the dupe is priced so well. I highly recommend this dupe to anyone who loves LDBS or is searching for a marshmallow, floral perfume that’s flirty, warm, sexy, and mysterious. It’s unapologetically feminine. I’ve heard Dossier makes a great dupe but it’s hardly ever available on Amazon. I’m so glad I gave this one a try. 10/10Now, onto the Baccarat 540 dupe. “WOW” is best word to describe it. Smells amazing from the second you put it on and the scent lingers for several hours. I’ve never splurged on the original but have used a friend’s before. It smells just like what I remember. Even if it smelled nothing like it, this would still be a scent I would adore. I’ll definitely be purchasing again and again. I have several fragrances that I love, but I have a feeling this will be my “go to” for a long time. 10/10As for the Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, I’ve never smelled the original fragrance so I’m not sure if it’s a good dupe or not. That said, I didn’t like this scent at all. I usually love a sweet tobacco smell. Back to Black by Killian is one of my favorite perfumes and I hoped it would be similar to that. I doubt I’ll ever wear this fragrance. 2/10 for me.For the price, I’m willing to risk that I might have a miss from this brand. I ordered the dupe for Love Don’t Be Shy and am hoping it’s a good match because I love the original scent, but can’t justify the cost right now.

It’s a NO from me …
Oh my god. I have smelled my fair share of dupes, and I had a sample of the TF original once upon a time - but this one is down right foul.I am not sure what is up with your noses in this review section but this is NOT it.I asked several people in person what they thought of this scent and we all came to the same conclusion more or less.Initial notes - immediately strong cat piss and chemical vanilla, dry down to an elderly baby powder with some weird off putting dry animalic vibe I can’t even truly describe. And with an oil base, how in the hell they managed to make it smell so synthetic is beyond me.On a positive note it was a cheap blind buy and I will say unfortunately for me the longevity and sillage are no joke - as I found out trying to scrub it off my skin with the aid of rubbing alcohol and Dawn dish soap. It still lingered.Overall one of the most putrid dupes I’ve encountered. 0/10

Rash after using
I LOVED the scent of the products I received (even received a small gift perfume 🥹). Sadly I developed a rash after using. So bummed I can’t use them. The scents are beautiful and last long. Aside from my own personal reaction I would recommend this product, just be aware of your own allergies. I have no known allergies but apparently something in this product does not agree with my skin 😔.

Great Scent / Excellent Customer Service
Just want to say I had a shipping issue and this seller took care of me right away! Excellent customer service and I can not say enough about the product itself! This scent is very near and dear to me and it had been so long since I had smelled it. It was perfect, it smells just as I remember, subtle hints of vanilla, light tabaccco, and almond. Very masculine, my partner really likes it.
