This is Versace Eros mixed with Starwalker by MontBlanc, and it lasts over 7 hours, almost 8. Great vibe, highly recommended.
Marcelus
In my opinion, it only gets a B and smells like birria, but at least it’s cheap. I ended up gifting it because I hated it, and that says a lot when I have fragrances I plan to use for years. I own six from this brand—all good and affordable—but this one is flat, synthetic, and fades fast. Maybe I got a bad batch since I’ve read reviews saying otherwise, but this bottle definitely wasn’t it.

In my opinion, this gets a B-minus and smells like birria. The good news is it’s cheap, so I’m glad I ended up gifting it because I didn’t like it at all. Since I have fragrances meant to last a decade, as my wife says, and I already own six excellent, affordable scents from this house, this one is flat, synthetic, and short-lived all at once. Maybe I got a bad batch since I’ve read reviews saying otherwise, but anyway, I’ll keep trying. Definitely not this one.

Brutal fragrance, a mix of Starwalker and Versace Eau Fraiche. Dries down super rich with that soapy, clean vibe. To me, it leans more masculine. A 10/10 for the price and lasts 5-6 hours on the skin.
Jesuloc1303
Incredible fragrance, like if Starwalker and Versace Eau Fraiche had a baby. So rich, especially in that soapy, clean dry-down. I’d say it’s masculine; a 10/10 for the price and a solid 5 to 6 hours of skin performance.
Fitoxis
The three B’s: Good, Beautiful, and Cheap. Fresh, clean, and summery. Great longevity and projection. I don’t understand why they discontinued it.

Aura Fresh is a magnificent and charming fragrance that blends citrus, marine, and woody notes. It shares the DNA of Versace Man Eau Fraiche and evokes Starwalker by MontBlanc in the dry-down, but it stands out by lasting longer than both. As an EDP, it offers greater longevity and sillage than Versace’s EDT version. While unisex, the base tends toward masculine. Its freshness makes it ideal for sunny summers or springs, perfect for everyday wear. Not for night. It lasts about 6 hours on skin with a discreet trail. This overlooked Arab gem might be better off staying hidden to keep its low price intact.

Aura Fresh is a beast: a blend of citrus, sea, and wood. It has the DNA of Versace Man Eau Fraiche and dries down reminiscent of Montblanc Starwalker, but it lasts longer than both. As an EDP, it outperforms Versace’s EDT in longevity, sillage, and performance. Although it’s unisex, the base leans masculine. Its freshness makes it ideal for summers or sunny springs, perfect for daily wear; not for night. It lasts about 6 hours on skin with a discreet sillage that doesn’t overwhelm. This overlooked Arab gem is better off staying that way to keep it accessible and affordable.

I wore it today; it smells great, projects well, and lasts 6-7 hours. I compared it to Versace yesterday, and they’re about 85% similar, but this one is more citrusy while Versace is woodier. It’s a great option for everyday use, especially in the heat. For the price and performance, I give it a 9/10.
Ab OS.
Similar to Versace Fraiche, but it lacks that woody touch. I find it a bit bluer, like the cousin of Versace. Fraiche is my favorite, and while this isn’t bad, I wouldn’t switch to it. For a little more, you can get Fraiche, which I’d definitely buy for daily wear, and keep this for night or special occasions. It doesn’t last as long as Fraiche (incredible) and doesn’t evolve; it’s linear. Plus, they cost almost the same, so it’s just a matter of preference.
Gazuuh
Good perfume, excellent longevity of 7 to 8 hours. What more longevity do you want for this price? It’s inspired by Versace. 9/10.

I bought it thinking it was a clone of Versace Eau Fraiche and I was wrong. The opening is horrible and the dry-down is average; it’s an EDP but lasts just as long as an EDT. You can tell the ingredients are low quality, and I’ll never buy from them again. 5/10.
gaudaza98
I bought it because people said it was a clone of Versace Eau Fraiche. Ha! Horrible opening and an average dry-down. It’s an EDP but lasts just as long as Eau Fraiche, which is an EDT. You can tell the ingredients are low quality; I’ll never buy it again. 5/10.

To the people saying it doesn’t perform, I don’t know what reptile skin you must have, because on me it lasts over 12 hours without issues. It projects well and is detectable from a distance in about two hours, but in my personal bubble, it lasts forever. On clothes, I don’t even need to mention it. Armaf might disappoint on aroma quality, but few brands beat them on performance.

Some say it doesn’t perform, but I don’t know what reptile skin they have; it lasts 12 hours on me without fail. It projects well until 2 PM, then settles into a personal bubble that lasts forever. On clothes, I don’t even need to tell you. Armaf might disappoint on note quality, but few brands beat it on performance.
iMarco95
It lasts an hour on my skin and then it’s gone, even after 20 sprays. The performance is terrible.
Mauro.A.81
I like it. Smells very similar to Versace Man E.F. at first, but then the difference becomes clear: this one turns greener, soapy, and more masculine. It’s fresh and summery. The longevity isn’t bad at all—6 hours on skin and longer on clothes, with moderate sillage.
HarryPSG82
It’s a fresh opening scent, but I don’t like the dry-down: the final stage smells like men’s perfumes from the 80s aimed at guys over 40. It’s not bad, just stronger than Versace Fraiche, which has weak sillage compared to the surprisingly long-lasting Starwalker. Of all of them, I prefer the hidden gem, Bentley Momentum Unlimited, by far.

It’s cheap, sure, but the skin longevity is only an hour. It’s a clone not worth it unless you just want to freshen up at home. It smells delicious, but it doesn’t last; I have citrus scents that last seven and a half hours, so this just won’t work for my skin.
ivan.cbr
The opening smells like very strong synthetic pepper, but after an hour it turns rich, similar to Versace Eau Fraiche. Based on the scent, I’d go with Versace, but Aura Fresh wins on performance. Even though the longevity difference isn’t huge, I still prefer Versace, even if I have to reapply.

Hi, I’ve been wearing Aura Fresh for two days now. It’s true it smells very much like Versace Man Eau Fraiche, but here it’s much more soapy. Is that a flaw? Absolutely not; it leaves you feeling super fresh and clean. To me, it sounds like a blend of VMEF and Z Zegna: fresh, green, with that soap note. If you live in Mexico, it’s like VMEF mixed with a Zest-style soap but fruitier. Rich, masculine, energetic, white, and perfect for daily wear. Ideal for scorching heat. Lasts 7 hours (better than VMEF), moderate but consistent projection, and costs under $50. Go for it! Best regards 🙏
