    Never tried the original Gris Charnel, but this Massimo Dutti one smells more like Givenchy Gentleman EDP than the others mentioned. They share notes, but this dries down less powdery. It’s a masculine, semi-sweet, seductive scent for the night. At first, it smells a bit synthetic, but after 10 minutes it stabilizes and improves significantly. If you catch it at a good price, I recommend it; it lasts well. In my country, it’s around 85€, but at 50€, it’s definitely worth it.

    If you can still find it, give it a try—you’ll probably end up keeping it. It’s the perfect blend between BDK’s Gris Charnel and Dior Homme Intense, with top-tier ingredient quality. Performance is good; not a beast, but it delivers. The interesting thing is that with body heat, it reappears when it seems to have faded. One of the best.

  3. Atalcada

    It’s a copy of BDK’s Gris Charnel, and on top of that, more expensive than a lovely equivalent like Lattafa’s Liam Grey. You can tell from the very first note. Well, no original creation is immune to being imitated.

    I liked it, but I agree with the previous reviewer: short longevity, weak projection, and poor performance. It’s strong, with a distinct spicy character from the cardamom. I don’t detect the tea at all. It starts unisex with a sweet, smoky tonka touch that loses facets until it becomes dry, herbal, masculine, and woody. If you’re a woman who likes strong scents, you might enjoy it. I agree on the fragrance family, not so much on the iris. It’s more autumnal. I’d give it a low 7: it doesn’t smell bad, but to be more rounded, it lacks power, projection, and longevity. It ends up being half-baked.

    What a surprise upon trying it. Although not identical, it has a notable resemblance to my beloved Gris Charnel. It’s a woody, spiced, warm iris. The opening is a bit dry and earthy, but the drydown is creamy and sweet. I love the scent. On my skin, it lasts about 6 hours; after the first hour, the trail is very soft. It’s versatile, ideal for any occasion, and 100% unisex. Olfactory quality is high, though performance isn’t the best. It’s pricier than a Zara perfume, but not by much. Maybe I’d consider it if I didn’t already have the BDK, but right now, I don’t need it.
