Yesterday i tried the original. After using PP lose control oil and spray for over a month, i have to say is similar 95% to the original. Lose control is brighter in the opening, creamier and the cardamom note is higher. In The drydown is 98% similar. The longevity is good. The original is smoother, but i prefer PP, as i said brighter and even more apealing to my nose. Welldone Perfumes Parlour!! In LOVE with Lose control. I prefer the oil over the spray.
