    A great clone of One Million Lucky that gets no love and never seen anyone review it , is Bhara Dynamic Pour Homme . This one is a steal at somewhere around $30 , and if you want the One Million Lucky DNA , and on a budget, this is the one you need . A true hidden gem !!

      Let it sit for a month and try it again, or maybe it's just not there. Most of these are more inspired by than actual clones. Don't get me wrong lots of clones are very very close but it seems to me that Amaf, Al Harmain, FW have a lot of inspired by, but also have very close clones as well. A lot of other Arab/Dubai fragrance houses make some really good clones, most of those aren't mentioned as often and are a little harder to find, but they are out there and many are better to the OG. I Have a lot of designer, and just started buying some "clones" but I wear them because they smell great and I actually like the differences in them, not all but most.

My latest purchases have been, Masion Alhambra Immortel, Lattafa Najdia, Lattafa Suqraat, Armaf Le Parfait Pour Homme and Armaf Craze, Armaf Tag--Him Prestige Edition. Everyone has been hyping the Masion Alhambra Immortel, and I wore it for the first time, and got compliments. My other purchases are good as well.
