I LOVE ambery saffron so much, Ive been buying it for years as it smells just like the real thing so is perfect to take on trips or keep in the car. That being said, Ive always bought the smaller bottle but decided it was time to get more bank for my buck so went with the larger bottle. With the smaller bottles, the payoff is great. No alcohol smell, scent lasts for hours. This large bottle however not only is slightly a different color (odd), it smells entirely of rubbing alcohol. There is no scent. Not even minutes after applying to allow the alcohol to dissipate. Ive tried shaking the bottle thinking maybe the oils settled, Ive tried spraying from over a foot away to allow the alcohol to evaporate by the time it reaches me and, well nothing. Its just rubbing alcohol. For the price, its definitely not worth it which is a shame because it used to be so so amazing.

Ok, so this smells amazing BUT I completely get it when people say they go nose blind to this fragrance. Maybe its a longevity issue or maybe its the ingredients that cause the issue. I mean, maybe other people can smell it but I have to say, I want to smell myself! A beautiful fragrance tho

Dossier is not as strong and long lasting as the original. The scent profile is very close, however on my skin it had this odd minty almost toothpaste undercurrent to it, that dissipated as the day went. I think unless you're super familiar with the original, you probably wouldn't notice the differences.

I got this because Ive been dying to try Baccaraut however, while the price point is great I feel like the smell is not that strong - almost a bit watered down I want to say. I enjoy it for what it is, but there are other Dossier perfumes i like more, that are more fragrant and cost just a bit less.

I was really excited to try this perfume. It smells really good and I have received compliments on it but its lasting power is subpar. The only reason why I rated this 3 stars is due to it having a nice scent but without lasting power its pointless. I am debating on returning...needless to say I will not be purchasing again.

I got a LOT of compliments while wearing this. It was described to me as youre wearing a scent that isnt too feminine, but not too masculine. They said it was like both sides of the spectrum. I will say that I never smelled the original, and sadly I dont know what this own smells like either. I lost my sense of smell over a year ago to C19...I am strictly telling you what I was told. People love it! I cannot wait to try more!

One of my favs out of the first 5 I got!! I get a lot of compliments on it, and it does last quite awhile. Its a great fall scent. A lot of people started asking me if I smoke cigars though lol?? I dont think it smells like cigars but who knows. Anyways, my fav!

I didnt know what to expect from this one, because I have never smelled the original. I love amber and saffron in perfumes, so I thought it would be a fairly safe bet. And I was right! It has almost a gourmand quality to it as you apply; its warm and soft and just extremely beautiful. I predict I will go through several bottles of this!

When I first smelled Ambrey Saffron I absolutely loved it, and I loved how is smelled on me. Fresh smelling and not very strong. I am very allergic to perfumes. They always seem to give me a headache when I wear them but not Ambrey saffron. So I bought one for myself. This one is really strong smelling and heavy scent. I will try it for a few days and see if i still like it.

I'm not sure what the original small is supposed to be, I'm not a fan of cotton candy sweet smells so this is not for me. I also developed a rash from this perfume. I'm not sure what the ingredients are that I'm allergic to but it's not good for sensitive skin. I know it was this perfume that caused me to break out in red angry hives. The hives are only in the places where I sprayed this perfume. Sucks, it was the second time wearing this to realize I'm allergic to it.
