Quick question. What year was your cdnim made in? It should say it on the sticker at the bottom of your box. The reason I ask is bc I just bought one that was made in 2021 and it performs awfully. The scent is amazing but it doesn’t last or project.

parfums vintage does it best. Emperor edp comes very close to the original, and if you catch it on sale it's not a terrible price. It's arguable if you'd be better off buying a 50ml decant of a 2019 batch vs. the clone, but there's no denying it works.
