Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

This dupe opens with blood orange and mandarin before a honeyed gardenia heart settles into patchouli and benzoin. It's a genuinely close read of Scandal's honeyed-floral-amber identity, capturing the sweet, slightly gourmand warmth that made the original so popular, even if the patchouli base is a touch flatter and the gardenia less lush than JPG's version. Longevity is decent for the price point and the sweetness holds up through the day, making this one of the more convincing matches in the Aromers range for fans who want Scandal's honeyed personality on a budget.
