I've just received my two bottles of Oscar de la Renta - imported from the U.S. because it's been discontinued here in South Africa :-(
Can anyone recommend a replacement for this one, or is it indeed unique?
Despite some of the so-so reviews here, I love the stuff . . . the bright blast of grapfruit/lemon sherbet, balanced by a strong peppery note . . . the strong "pencil shaving"/nutmeg drydown . . . I've had numerous compliments on the stuff, too.
I went hunting for a replacement some months back when I learned that it had been discontinued, but despite making myself practically ill sampling everything available, I didn't discover anything close. It's really become my summer signature.
So - any alternatives (that I can actually obtain!)? Or am I doomed to import this until they decide to discontinue it (becoming paranoid now, I guess!)
