    Surprised

    I got this just to try it and see if I like the scent combo. To my surprise this is by far my favorite scent! I feel so sexy and confident with the aroma and got so many compliments. Definitely a must try!

    Good Clone

    If you’re looking for a Ysl y clone, or specifically a clone of the edp, I’ve found this one to be about 90% similar. I think it’s a very good fragrance that captures the original scent nicely. If I could rate it 4.5 stars I would rather than 5 only because I think the green apple is very prominent. Nothing wrong with that but I have smelt Ysl y edp many times and i feel the green apple note in “why”’s version is stronger than the original. Again nothing wrong with that if that’s what you like and the dry down smells amazing and so close that I can’t really tell a big difference. I think this is a great purchase and one that doesn’t get as much love as the rest of their products.

    Its legit

    I love the way this one smells. I was skeptical at first but every scent that I've purchased from oakcha smells exactly like the name brand. This one lasts about the same as the name brand and is just as powerful.
