  4. YouTube comment@Marcus-x4x90% match, read from the wording

    Wir haben beide und sie riechen wirklich nur in Nuancen anders. Das Original hat eine etwas bessere Haltbarkeit, aber leider einen völlig übertriebenen Preis wie alle Düfte von Tom Ford.

    Translation: We have both and they really only smell different in nuances. The original has slightly better longevity, but unfortunately a completely exaggerated price like all Tom Ford fragrances.
