I have never smelt the original and bought this on the strength of the reviews and its gorgeous, I've bought lots of perfumes here and been pleased with everyone.
I remember this from years ago and always liked it, this one has not disappointed me its smells lovely, I've bought about 10 from perfume parlour and just ordered more because they all have smelt so nice.
I have never smelt the original so didn't know what this would smell like, its gorgeous I went to buy more but at the moment its out of stock and im not surprised. Will reorder as soon as its back in.
