Excellent Fragrance!
I have never purchased an "Imposter" fragrance and I was extremely hesitant to do so, but one of my favorite perfumes is Philosophy's Amazing Grace. The downsides are that it's moderately expensive and it doesn't last very long. It's still rare to find a light, floral fragrance that I enjoy and that works with my body chemistry, and that perfume fits the bill.So, for a $12 imposter I wasn't expecting much, but I am shocked by the quality! I've got the real thing and this and can't tell the difference! In fact, I swear this one lasts a *little* longer - not much, mind you, but a little... and with a light fragrance, I'll take it, plus I don't feel bad putting it on multiple times a day for this price!Seriously - I'm shocked at how good this is. My other favorite is Ralph Lauren's Romance, and that will be my next purchase. At $17 it's a fraction of the cost of a big bottle, and too good of a deal to pass up. Buy this!Updated 11/27 - I still love the "Amazing Grace" fragrance, but I was able to try out the "Romance" scent in the store and it's absolutely DISGUSTING. It smells nothing like Romance, not even a little bit. It's more like... bug spray? B.o.? I don't know, but it is NOT good. Very, very gross - definitely stick to the original if that is your scent!I also tried Cashmere Mist. I am not familiar with the original scent, so I don't know how close it is, but it wasn't repulsive like Romance was. It is a light, powdery scent and it lasted even though I tried to scrub it off (when I was washing off Romance on the other arm because it smelled so bad!) It's not unpleasant, it's just not for me. If you like the scent I suggest going to your local Walgreens or other drug store and seeing if there are testers available for you to check out!

WOW!! WAY Better Than Expected!!!
So I think like many, I decided to try Amazing Grace (inspired by!) in this version because the disappointment with the REAL Amazing Grace is A THING. I've been wearing Philosophy AG for probably 15 years, and it is absolutely my go-to, signature fragrance. However, in the past few years (after selling out to Coty), I've found the price has gone way up on Philosophy AG and the quality is WAY down. It used to last all day, and now it lasts about 15 minutes if you're lucky. I keep buying it every couple of years and returning it because nothing has changed. If anything, it's worse. I tried layering with the body wash and lotion, and still - for $80+ per bottle, you don't expect to have to refresh every 30 minutes.So out of desperation, I tried this, not expecting much. But for $11, why not? WOW! I still have a bottle of the doesn't last Philosophy AG and sniffed each one right next to each other. If there's a difference between them, it is SO subtle so as not to be noticeable! It also lasts SOOOOO much longer than the real AG! I'm so beyond thrilled to be able to have my long-lasting, beautiful, light floral fragrance back and for a fraction of the cost! PLEASE NEVER DISCONTINUE THIS!

Perfect for the price
I love Versace Bright Crystal. During Xmas season I couldn't find anywhere that had what I normally buy in stock. I pay upwards of $60 for the real stuff. My husband found thus to hold me over until I could find the brand name bottle I normally buy. It smells pretty close to the real deal, my only complaint is that the fragrance doesn't last all day, only an hour before it fades to the point that you can't smell it anymore and have to spray more on. But it is still a worthwhile purchase especially because of the affordable price.

The BEST!!
I came upon this perfume about 2 years ago and I have been wearing it everyday since. I work with the public every day and all the customers men and women alike just love the smell of this perfume. Women ask me where they can buy it and men say they really like the feminine fragrance. I hope they never stop making this White Diamonds Scent because it's light and not a heavy fragrance like so many other perfumes.

Smells nice.
Got the product on time and in excellent shape. Smells pretty good and it exceeded my expectations on that, this because of the price. I'm just giving it 3 stars because the smell doesn't last long, but again, for the price, I could buy it again. For a quick interview or something like that, it definitely does the job.

Smells horrid!!
I purchased this scent (Amazing Grace inspo) bc i was searching for a new summer scent this year. Im kinda tired of my usual (VS Bombshell n Bombshell Summer) In my searches I found that Philosophy's Amazing Grace was one of Americas #1 most purchased scents for women. Since the real deal was a bit pricey for the quantity n i never actually smelled it, i figured id search for a dupe first to see if i liked it n then decide from there if I wanted to spend the $ on the real thing. When I saw Instyle made a dupe of it i was super excited bc i LOVE their scents. I actually buy them all the time at my local walgreens. (They make a spot on version of VS Bombshell that i use when im low on the real one..i have also used their D&G Light Blue n Angel when i ran low on the real ones) Unfortunately this one is absolutely HORRID!! A mix of air freshener, sun tan lotion n those little soaps in the shape of flowers the old lady next door used to have in her guest bathroom when i was little in the 80s!! But after the dry down i def felt like i walked around smelling like i just came from a day at our swim club! (Sunblock scent) As i said above I have never smelled the real deal but based on my experience with Instyle they are usually pretty darn close!! Idk how this scent is getting such good reviews or how this could ever be a #1 scent!! If I could return it i would. Its hard to explain why I hate this scent so much. I just cant quite put my finger on one particular thing but i know i DO NOT LIKE IT!! Hard pass!!!

Cheap and a good dupe
I just got this and it did not disappoint. I’m so happy with the smell and the bottle too. It doesn’t smell like just rubbing alcohol. It smells rich and kinda like what it’s inspired by. Obviously, the original one is better but for everyday use it’s a good choice. I think the lasting period could be better but for its price it’s really good.
