For the Bleu Electrique clones I classify them this way. Jack Of Clubs = bright and spicy for day use. Caprice = deep and rich for evening use. Iconic Nuit = balanced and versatile without being polarizing. It's a dumb grab. Inevitably, if you layer all three you've got something exceeding anything superior in the OG. My two cents. Cheers.
Could you try out Liam Grey by Lattaffa and compare it to your bottle of Francique 63.55 so you can give us your thoughts on whats the better Gris Charnel clone or which one is closest to the Extrait version?
I think some clone houses dupe scents because they can. And it has to do with tapping markets design houses either don't care about or attempt to access. Some of it has to do with proximity to the region. Others may have to do with distribution access and whether the juice is worth the squeeze. Cheers.
