Clones means branded as another? Or “pirated” with same packaging as originals?
Clones means other brands, cheaper but smells similar to original but usually not 100% but you can get up to 90% similarity. Longevity depends.
Some brands like Armaf have very good brand with good Longevity.
Some they add their own twist into the perfume. Like Armaf "Urban Man Elixir" is 80% Sauvage + 20% Aventus.
Some when you spray the opening is similar, dry down differs.
Most when you spray starting is harsh but it dry downs to similar to original.
A lot of different effects haha.
Not like pirated 1:1 copy down to the bottle, brand and packaging.
On the other hand you have designer "inspired by" other niche brand.
Mont Blanc explorer that smells like a twist of Creed Aventus.
