Sebastian, I'm Pietro in Palm Beach and admire your work. My favorite perfume was Giorgio VIP Special Reserve from about 1987. I have 1ml left from a $2500 eBay purchase. I've smelled hundreds hundreds and nothing melds with my own self like this fragrance. Have you covered this my friend? I can send you my 1 mL. Cheers. Peter

Have you tried Pour Lui by Oscar De La Renta? I haven't compared but some people say it is similar. Sadly I can't help you though that's also a very pricey purchase! Ouch! :(

I really rate this Margiela line, my favourite in the designer realm. Whispers in the Library used to be my fave but it became somehow metallic as it aged. So now my top 3 are: Jazz Club, Bubble Bath and Matcha Meditation.

The choice to stick to the "replica" concept was honestly very smart for Maison Margiela. It prevents flankers and promotes creativity/unique accords. It really sets them apart as a designer fragrance brand

Lipstick On - just finished a bottle, such a shame they discontinued this one. My favorite lipstick scent, doesn't smell old / vintage. Everything about it is just perfect. Ladies, get yourself a sample if you get a chance and you will enjoy it 100%

Whispers in the Library works really well on me. Jazz Club is probably my favorite. Can't do By The Fireplace after wildfires in my area a couple years ago. Driving through the burn after it rained... it smells the same! They all have amazing performance too. I have an old bottle of Moonwalk I never wear, too soapy.
