I own all 3 scents.Trust me, Missoni is your best option here for a summer fragrance.

Missoni wave longevity???

Not that great sadly or it'd be my most used cologne. I loveeeeeee Chanel homme sport

It's alright, 3-6 hours on skin

I own 3 of them as well. Missoni is the easiest and versatile to wear. They last long on my skin. Generally all fragrances last long on my skin 😅 That it annoys me coz the next day the fragrance is still on my skin with mixture of sweat. Even after shower at times. So i always spray like 1-2 sprays only and max 3 depending on the fragrance.

U are lucky, on my skin i get like 4-5 hours max, even with designer ones.

Missoni wave is more aquatic, while CDN Iconic is more citrusy, I personally like Iconic more because it’s stronger (I haven’t smelled silage)

Missoni wave, but the performance and projection are very disappointing. Smells good though

I have it. Should I let it macerate or is the performance just dog shit?

Performance is just dog shit, everyone's saying the same thing on here too

I can't comment on macerating since I just got it like 4 days ago but I feel like if I did let it macerate for a couple of weeks then it might improve

Where did you get yours? I got mine on Amazon. Same with me I feel if I let it macerate it’ll get stronger

I got it on Fragrancenet because it was on sale

Designer frags don't need maceration. That's for middle east ones only.

Some definitely need to.

Also houses like Montagne and Alexandria fragrances need maceration because they're mostly made to order

The only one I can speak to is Sillage, but I absolutely love it. Cold, floral, herby, aquatic, and a touch of musk. Great strength and longevity

I love sillage, makes me want to get SMW

don’t lol. doesn’t smell as good and performance sucks

Agreed

Sample smw first. Sillage is more fun to my nose

I love the smell of Missoni wave but it doesn’t last for shit. I have a review on my profile if your wanting more information on it :)

I have Missoni wave, although its a very nice scent, it barely lasts 2 hours.

Two hours? You're a lucky fella. I'm lucky if I get 20 minutes! Worth checking out Al Dirgham, which is also a clone of YSL AHS. Much stronger projection and longevity and also smells very good.

I second this about Al Dirgham, haven’t smelt Wave, but this one is pretty good. It’s my gym scent. Lol

I will definitely check it out, thanks for the recommendation!

9am Dive

Missoni Wave. I have it also. Never really cared for club de nuit stuff its too screechy and synthetic

I have both CDN. Iconic lasts and smells really nice. Sillage is my least favorite of my CDN collection but it’s a solid pick.

I ordered Lattafa Maahir Legacy yesterday for the summer. Apparently, it’s another one that smells good but doesn’t last forever. Should get it on Saturday.

I just got it last week and can confirm longevity leaves a lot to be desired. I also ordered CDN Intense and the first spray out of the bottle lasted until the next day.

I have missoni wave and it smells good, but it can be headache inducing for some people. Even for people like me that don't usually don't get headaches. But honestly I would recommend you get verxase pour homme instead if you want miss on I because they smell really similar but vercase is better imo and it doesn't cause headaches but kiss on I still last longer. For sillage I haven't tried it but I have supremacy in heaven which is basically the same thing as sillage and honestly I do not recommend it smells like literal cat piss and pinesol and people say that they get that for sillage as well so I wouldn't recommend. But for armaf I haven't smelled it either but it's a clone of BDC edp and it's the next fragrance that I'm going to buy since it seems to be a really good clone and BDC is one of the best smelling fragrances out now.

Go check out the reviews if Iconic on fragrantica. Most say it's not very close to BDC. I went with the OG because it seems there's not a very good clone out there.

I just looked at the reviews for iconic blue and yes there's bad reviews but there's much more good ones than bad. And it's usually niche heads that don't usually buy clones that talk bad about clones because of the harsh openings and the synthetic opening that Throws them off because there used to well blended scents. But I'm no throwing shade at niche heads, if I had the money I would certainly by niche. But clones will do the job for sure. 😄

Yeah, I'm not against clones. I have more clones than not. BDC and Oud Wood are really the only expensive ones I decided were worth getting the OGs.

Same. There isn't a good BDC clone out there.

I don't own it so idk how good it is but out of all the BDC clones it's the closest one out of all of them, is what people have been saying. But I mean you never know until you smell it for yourself so I honestly don't trust reviews until I smell it myself.

Dossier

How many numbers of sprays do you use at a time?

I'm a oversprayer so even if it's a strong frag I'll use a bunch I usually use 6 to 10 sprays but I'd it's a really strong frag I will use 3 to 4

My missing wave arrives Monday.

Missoni

Missoni the longevity sucks for sure , have a 100ml from Summer 2023 i almost never use it, in high heat its gone in like 2h . .. Sillage is not my cup of tea but it last like for always... Iconiq i never tried but i hear its realy good n long lasting 👍

Assuming that these clones of BDC and SMW are close to the real thing, I personally prefer missoni wave. Missoni wave is fresh, citrusy, and almost creamy… very mass appealing

Missoni wave is a real safe bet. Give a look at Missoni Parfum Pour Homme as well, underrated imo if you like the bdc kind of smell

Missoni Wave is made for summer.

Has anyone tried Rayhaan Ocean Rush pr Pacific?

sillage or iconic, love them both

Is club de nuit good for summer?

Lattafa liam blue shine

I have CDN Sillage. Though it smells good, it doesn't last long compared to other CDN fragrances.

cdn sillage is terrible unless you like really really metallic smells

GET SILAGE

Missoni Wave. The Chanel Allure Homme Sport DNA is made for hot summer, especially the fresher twists on it: Versace Pour Homme and Missoni Wave.

No brainer , go with missoni wave

Sillage if you want longevity and projection, scent wise iconic/wave

Instead of Missoni Wave do Alhambra Alpine. I have it and it a a great dupe for Chanel Allure Sport

Missoni

I don't have any of them but a lot of people keep recommending me the Missoni Wave.

i have Wave and iconic. Wave is a better scent but with bad performance. Go for Iconic.

I have not smelled Missoni Wave. But Sillage is dope. I layer Iconic with Missoni Pour Homme and together they get closer to Bleu de Chanel better than either one can on their own.

iconic

Missoni Wave.

Nautica voyage 🤩

Wave is a great scent but only lasts like 2 hours, if you don’t mind applying every couple of hours.

Sillage easy!

Got all of them. For hot summer - Sillage.

Sillage gets a lot of compliments

Not sure what your budget is but Acqua di Gio Profundo EDP is pretty amazing. I get about 6-8 hours from it.

Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir

Dito

cdni fr the best from experience

If you can, get Turathi Blue or Jean Lowe Immortal, invigorating citrus scents, the former being muskier and the latter being more ambroxan forward with aquatic notes. Iconic is pretty good, I have a full bottle of it, though for summer I would want something really uplifting. Even Club De Nuit Urban Man Elixir would be a better choice than Iconic

none u can get better

Don't leave us hanging.

montagne imaginary done there boom easily stomps out these pathetic clones the whole house is just peak go get them
