Is Blossom Perfumery 040 Addict a dupe of Dior Addict?

Which Should You Buy?
A legendary, dark, and sensual vanilla that's been tragically reformulated over the years. The original 2002 version is a confidence-boosting beast, revered by many, but its intensity means it’s definitely not for everyone.
No. 040 takes on the 2014 Dior Addict eau de parfum's blackberry-white floral-sandalwood arc, landing a recognisable version of the fruity-floral opening and warm base, though it is louder and flatter than the original's more layered, luminous florals.

Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and strong sillage, often described as 'beast mode', make it too overpowering for the office but perfect for dates and evening events where you want to make a statement. The opulent, dark vanilla and white floral accords lend themselves well to formal occasions and cooler weather casual wear.
