It's really difficult for people who haven't smelled the original to shop from Asedos....not everyone interprets the notes the same, and when I first purchased from Asedos, I didn't like almost all the ones I bought and ended up returning all of them. Glad the return process was not a fuss!! Months later, I ordered again, and this time having a better idea of what to expect, I finally found some fragrances that I really love! Looking forward to ordering again.
