    I blind bought this last summer and when I first sprayed it on I thought it smelled like Vicks Vapor rub, but then 10 minutes later I got a whiff of something that smelled like a caramel apple and was blown away that it was coming from me. I kept going back to my arms to smell it. It's a masterpiece of a fragrance.

    I bought the exclusif One. The original smells absolutely fantastic, don’t get me wrong, but, the exclusive one just feels masculine. A lot more masculine. It pulls tons of compliments too. Original Layton can be worn by a guy or a girl though and I’m not a big fan of unisex fragrances. I really like the fact that I cannot pull off Delina and my girl cannot pull off Layton exclusive.

      I got Royal Equestrian from Alexandria Fragrances. It’s a clone for Layton too, and it’s probably the best fall & winter scent that checks every box. It gets complements, lasts for around 10 hours and about 3+ feet of projection for the first couple hours, and it has great sillage. Whenever I got out at night, I wear RE because I know it will get positive attention. My summer & spring favorite is Black Panther from AF and my fall and winter favorite is Royal Equestrian. I’m sure you’ll love Royal Chariot from Dua.

    Late bloomer to the fragrance game. Blind bought Layton recently, and once it hit the dry down I was immediately reminded of a scent I never reach for in my collection. Diesel Spirit of the Brave Intense (Gold bottle) Definitely not the same quality level, and up close you can pick them apart, but the scent trail and the mid on these scents is oddly close to my nose. Not really sure why I don't wear the diesel more, but wondering if anyone else knows what I'm talking about. Not a dupe, not SUPER close, but weirdly close
