Had been looking for a bottle of the original D&G BY MAN to provide as a gift to a special friend. However copies of the original product are largely over 20 years old and were listed for ridiculous prices on buy & sell sites. Plus the risk the fragrance has kept its notes and has been stored correctly is extremely low.
All seemed lost!
I stumbled upon the Palermo website when in a 2am google shame spiral looking for something that could be remotely close to the original. Took a chance on my first purchase with this product. It arrived quicker than the fastest long distance land mammal - the majestic Pronghorn Antelope.
Well packaged and sleek bottle really wowed me, but the real test was yet to come. I sat awaiting the man’s reaction to see if this perfume dupe would came close to his former favourite fragrance of the early 2000’s.
A few sprays later, the joy that flooded his face as you could see him visibly nostalgic for the glory days of his youth when he used to wear the original fragrance filled me with a sense of pride and great accomplishment.
Finally I done good, all was well in the world again.
It is Spot on for the original.
A warning - I wouldn’t recommend buying this if you are uncomfortable with people encroaching into your personal space to aggressively sniffing you whilst stating how sexy you smell.
You have been warned.
