Tropical Jewel 50mls

Shoutout to Ellie Cosmetics for good communication and delivery from when I ordered to when I received Tropical Jewel. I have the OG, hibiscus mahajad and smell wise the only difference is tropical jewel is lighter, not as dense or heavy smelling as hibiscus mahajad but same smell different in the heavy and denseness of the smell performance wise of course hibiscus mahajad takes the cake. Not to say, tropical jewel is a bad performer. For the price, tropical jewel is a beastmode performer( which coming from me says a lot as I don't throw that word on any fragrance so when I say its a beast, you know it truly is) idk about longevity as it doesn't matter to me as much as projection and sillage. I get 4 hours of good projection on my skin( it may have more hours of projection, I just couldn't smell it strongly in the air after 4 hours, not to say it disappeared, I may have gotten nose blind)and a nice scent trail, do you're really getting a bang for your buck and for 180 rands you can't go wrong. With how lighter it is than hibiscus mahajad, its more summer friendly as imo I wouldn't wear hibiscus mahajad in summer with how sickly sweet and nauseating it gets in the heat, unlike tropical jewel which for the same smell and scent profile isn't sickly sweet, to me nor does it get nauseating in heat(imo, disclaimer fragrance is subjective). So if you can't afford hibiscus mahajad, I can assure you tropical jewel will sustain you( smell and performance wise in general, of course the OG outperforms this) till you can afford the full bottle and who knows you might love the dupe more than the OG.
