Is Blossom Perfumery 185 Metallique a dupe of Tom Ford Metallique?

Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford Metallique is properly divisive- you'll either get an 'icy' metallic vanilla or a 'rusty' nauseating mess. If your skin plays nice, it's a unique and sophisticated vanilla, clean but never boring. A true love-it-or-hate-it scent.
A close-on-paper take on Tom Ford Metallique with the same aldehyde-heliotrope-vanilla structure, though the shimmering, almost metallic aldehyde effect of the original reads softer and less distinctive here.
