Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your average flanker. Extravagance d'Amarige is a vibrant, green-floral powerhouse that stands alone. While some find its boldness a bit much, devotees praise its unique, sparkling charm and impressive staying power. A true 90s icon, tragically discontinued.
No.2 leans on Ann Gerard's Ciel d'Opale - a green, quince-honeysuckle floral - for its citrus-into-powder shape, but the dupe's transitions feel less delicate and the whole thing fades to a plain sandalwood-amber base far sooner than the original's soft, lingering finish.

Its fresh, green, and uplifting character makes it versatile for casual and daytime wear, with a noticeable presence that could be a bit strong for very formal or intensely sporty settings.
