      Yes Dior Fahrenheit is indeed a great DNA 🧬 and the more you let it macerate, the more it became rounded and powerful.

      After 17 months of maceration, it is now closer to the Parfum version flanker, except the boozy note.
      Be aware that this one is more mature but I adore it, as I mentioned in my review, it's not a blind buy.
      But it's a very rich scent, specially after maceration, Renheit by fragrance world that I also purchased is even a better fragrance/ dupe 90% similar to the Parfum version👍🏻

    Hi marco, greetings from indonesia.
    OG Fahrenheit was my teenager memories and I love it so much
    I have a round bottle La rive hitfire, the scent was good but it least only 2 hrs on me.
    I've got FW Renheit and out of my expectation, its added with more cinnamony/spices and vanilla sweetness.
    If I looking for the clone of OG Fahrenheit (NOT Le Parfum version) with better performance than LR hitfire would you reccomend this?
    Regards.

      @@scentsing Hello Okky Har and welcome.
      First thanks for sharing your thoughts , I also wore Fahrenheit in my youth years and adores it , I also got in my collection ''Renheit '' that is indeed a dupe of the parfum version, I reviewed in the past Hitfire by La Rive , the old formula was lasting on my shirt 6 to 7 hours in the cold weather or in Aircon environment (not on skin ) but unfortunately,it was reformulated, the scent is amazing for the price but the lasting is as you mentioned not the best , of course in tropical hot & humid climate like Indonesia , all fragrances evaporates quicker 😭.
      However if you want an affordable dupe of the actual EDT. version of Dior Fahrenheit , just go for Mercedes Benz intense for Men , that last a reasonable time and is very pleasant.
      I hope that I was useful, feel free to watch my other reviews and also from my colleague and friend Pinoy Kiwi Scent 😉

      @@marco4uperfumes708 for sure, absolutely agreed that MB intense was great but out of my list because it's worth about US$45-50 here in Indo. The fortnight/renheit only for US$15-18, so this is what I called afforable price. TBH price range between 10-25 are the most valueable market here

    Holla Marco, May I ask? Ive recently purchased a bottle of Dior Fahrenheit edt, my bottle is 9 months/2 weeks old according to CheckFresh. I was shocked at how weak it was when I sprayed it on, and noticed that after 5 minutes it actually got stronger on me, I guess its bc the air made it open up.. now its still quite weak, and although it smells somewhat like it did back in the day, it seems a bit soapy almost. The Gasoline vibe wears off in 30 mins or so and im left with an ULTRA woody dna and not much else... Do you think letting it mature will help? I just feel like im wasting juice at this point trying to get any longevity out of it by over spraying.. I appreciate any advice you can offer as im pretty frustrated. Subscribed!😊

      I was a fan of Fahrenheit edt. but unfortunately it got reformulated and I was also so deceapointed.
      I let it macerate for a few months but the lasting and the projection did not improve a lot !
      And on top of that the dry down was boooooooooring indeed !
      Reformulation🫣 !!!
      And the gasoline note didn't improve by much either.
      So I bought Mercedes Benz intense for men edt. and it gave me a very similar scent with a little better longevity ,same below average projection but after maceration it was average for almost the third of the price.
      I hope that i was useful.

      Hello dear Nicolas Farah.
      I said in this review 2:09 that the gasoline note is tone down, not absent , tone down compared to the first batches but it's there( as in the reformulated version of Fahrenheit) , it is a great dupe with a touch of the parfum version, much more animalic than the EDT. from Dior !
      I prefer the Maison Alhambra version , interpretation and the price is unbeatable for the quality offer.
      Yes it is a great dupe but again of the first batches of Fahrenheit.
      If you want a perfect clone of the actual version ( reformulated) , you need to go for Mercedes Benz Intense.
      I recommend both .

    Hey Marco, my best scent combination was Fahrenheit Parfum, Initio Side Effect, and Chanel Bleu Parfum. People would literally stop me in the street, follow me in the lounges to smell me haha. Problem is these are expensive to maintain. I love the boozy, rum, sex, animalistic scents with a slight hint of the Chanel Bleu Parfum peaking through. Based on that, what would be your recommendations for clones that I can buy by itself or combine? Thanks for all you do in the fragrance community.

      First let me wish you an Happy new year 🥂.
      Well according to what you wrote and your exclusive layering 👏
      First let me suggest to you some great and affordable alternatives or dupes for those that you mentioned.
      Ok first alternative for Dior Fahrenheit Parfum of coure is Fortnight by Maison Alhambra (specially if you like the animalic touch and closer to the parfum version but not totally the boozy note is missing !)
      (But you can also purchase Mercedes Benz intense but the leather note is tone down , it 's a more crowd pleaser and refined take on it , probably inspired by the aqua flanker but personally I find it boring 😁.)
      Than you have The man Cobalt by Milton & Lloyd which is very nice clone of Fahrenheit too
      ---------------
      For decent alternatives to Side effect, you need to go for Collateral Damage by the house of Dua
      or Purple Effect by Fragrance World.
      ---------------
      And for Bleu de Channel Parfum, I have to be less enthusiastic, I never smelled a good alternative to the parfum Flanker!
      Version ever!
      So I guess that you need to keep this one lol.

      The Mercedes Benz intense is very nice and the petroleum note is there but the leather note is quite discreet, it is a clone of the modern version of Fahrenheit EDT .
      On The other hand, Fortnight for men is much more animalic or animalistic, the suede (Leather)

      Hello and welcome Francisco Martinez.
      As I mentioned in this review it is 80% similar to the old batch released in the end of the 80's(unfortunately the gasoline note is tone down! ) but with a touch of the actual Parfum, because the animalistic and suede note that is very present.
      65% close to the actual Fahrenheit le Parfum (after a few months of maceration!)
      And it is in my opinion only 50% close to the actual version of Dior Fahrenheit EDT. , So if you want a more close and affordable dupe of the modern version of the EDT., go for Mercedes Benz intense( that has the gasoline note!)

      The secret in order to get satisfaction by Fortnight is maceration.
      Use it normally about 20 spritz then please remove the cap and eventually the spritzer (top part of the atomiser)and let it rest for a month in a dark place (avoid sunlight)no fridge either
      then after a month put back all the parts .
      After this process of maceration you will get a dupe of the Dior Fahrenheit parfum version combine with the first batch of Fahrenheit, not the actual one as I mentioned in my review 😉
      But if you prefer the last reformulated batch of Dior Fahrenheit that is more youthful then go for Mercedes Benz intense EDT.👍🏻
