Enjoyed the video Chris. Not sure it's legal to copy a fragrance exactly due to formula rights, but it's always great to see a version that's tweaked for a specific purpose or taste.

It's an incredibly controversial, complex and sensitive subject. You'll see legal articles that claim you can or cannot patent or copyright a composition, newly synthesized molecules or a manufacturing process; but the truth is that it's rarely done anyways, hence the inordinate amount of secrecy in the industry. I suppose until more sensitive definitions and laws are created to govern the business, clone away!!! Appreciate the reply my friend!

This one is far too strong and NOT at all like GIT. Imho. If there is anything illegal about cloning fragrances, this one certainly DID NOT clone Creed's Green Irish Tweed because it smells NOTHING like it. Horrible purchase for me I'm returning or will have to resell. NOTHING "masculine" about this fragrance whatsoever. Imho.

I did try the PP version of GIT and it is nearly identical in the opening and develops very similar to GIT. Only after a few hours in the dry down, they starts to diverge. Would you say this Emeral Isle is even closer to GIT, and can you give a comparison of the two clones?

@FRAGMENTAL
6 жыл бұрын
I have to say that I think it's very unfair to make the assumption that reviewers are 'bribed' by free perfume to write a biased and dishonest review. Can you corroborate your claims of bribery and my dishonesty with any evidence? I take a tremendous amount of pride in my honesty and integrity and take it VERY seriously if someone makes wild accusations to the contrary. I have spent hundreds of pounds buying fragrances that I review so if a complimentary bottle is sent to me from time to time then it's most welcome, but it will NEVER act as a bribe and persuade me to go against my ideals and beliefs and make public a dishonest review. Film critics do not pay to watch films they review, so are we to believe that they too are bribed? Indeed if this is the case then you must question the honesty and integrity of every reviewer who does not pay for the product they are reviewing. I think you'll find that is a lot of reviewers (fragrance or otherwise). If you truly believe that what you're saying is the case, then yes I think you should unsubscribe from me and many other reviewers. Wild accusations and assumptions are upsetting and foolish. I think you have some thinking to do. If you choose to unsubscribe then I thank you for your support thus far.
