I picked this one up as I decided to get all four of the new releases. It’s exactly as you described. Not the star of the new releases but does offer an opportunity to try something different. The dry down is where it shines best. As usual, you have to be patient with these clones. They come out a bit aggressive but tend to mellow out a great deal an hour or so into the process. I like to layer with these clones. I’m not sure what will go best with this one yet.

CDNIM Iconic is a great fragrance. I went ahead and purchased it over a month ago. Great buy. Kinda pricey for a "clone"!! It starts off with a lemony" 🍋 smell. The lemony smell does not bother me and it only last for a few minutes. You start to smell the similarity between BDC and CDNIM Iconic. The projection and sillage is very good. Last a long time on my skin. I'm letting it sit and macerate for a few months and see what happens. 👍🔥

A bit disappointing. Gotta say. Since what i wanted was an accurate straight BDC clone. At $50 it's a bit much for a blind buy too. I've stopped blind buying. I was looking for "This is smells just like BDC. You don't need to buy BDC. Buy this." Just like people say with Milestone or CDNI. The opening of BDC is the favorite part so not to have it means this one probably would disappoint me. Have to go with Prada LR Ocean and save up for the actual BDC.
