Bvlgari Aqua Marine vs Armaf Tres Nuit Lyric

Near match

Armaf Tres Nuit Lyric has most of Bvlgari Aqua Marine's accords, but not at the same strength, so it reads as a near match rather than a copy.

They share 6 of Bvlgari Aqua Marine's 7 main accords: aquatic, citrus, aromatic and fresh.

Armaf Tres Nuit Lyric costs about 36% of the price, around €43 against €120.

On skin they last about as long and project about as far.

What you give up: grapefruit, neroli and petitgrain, which Armaf Tres Nuit Lyric does not list.
