It is one of the limitations of the Amazon review system, or perhaps the way that Twist has asked Amazon to organize its reviews that ALL the Twist fragrances are aggregated for review purposes. This is silly, as someone wanting to make a particular fragrance purchase -- say a clone of Green Irish Tweed (Twist Green No. 41) -- really isn't going to be interested in how good the Baccarat Rouge dupe smells. And there is no way of searching the reviews to zero in on the scents one is interested in. I am sure many customers have been happy with one dupe from a company only to find that a different product from the same company misses the mark. The following are short reviews of all the Twist products that I have. Don't know what that does to the "Star Rating" System -- Getting three stars for Twist Wild One No. 71 (a Sauvage clone that isn't close on the dry-down, IMHO) doesn't really have anything to do with a five star review for Twist Red Velvet No. 4 (Baccarat Rouge) or Twist Green No. 41 (Green Irish Tweed) that are really pretty good in my limited experience.Twist Noir No. 32 (five stars) and Twist Black No. 24 (five stars): I have never smelled Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather or Ombre Leather, so I can't rate how close these scents are to those fragrances. I can say, though, that they are wonderful in its own right. "Delicious" was the first word that came to mind. This is not for someone who wants to smell cloyingly sweet -- this scent evokes a sense of gravitas, of seriousness of purpose. For lack of a better description, this is a scent for grownups -- it is sophisticated and nuanced. I have recently been testing out a dozen or so affordable scents including several from Twist. These, and Twist Cyperus No. 60 and Red Velvet No. 4 are leading the pack as real surprises. Affordable and -- most importantly -- not cheap smelling.Twist River No. 64. Solid four stars. It is supposed to be a Creed Silver Mountain Water clone and it smells very close. I just don't happen to favor the original scent! Not Twist's fault. Same with Twist Wood No. 28. It is very close to Tom Ford's Oud Wood, but I don't love Oud as a fragrance note, even if I do love TF's Suede scents. Just personal taste, there. I am fairly new to this world, so I didn't know I'd have these reactions until after purchasing the products. Hey, it's a journey . . .Twist Napoli No. 7 is supposed to be an Aventus clone. Three stars here. My sample of Aventus has A LOT of citrus in the opening - the Creed product is sharp and bold. The Napoli No. 7 is going for something similar, but doesn't quite get there. It just smells like a weaker version.The ad-copy for all the products says "long lasting" -- I don't really know what to make of that. All the ones I have tried seem like 3-4 hour scents. That isn't "long lasting" to me. It is somewhere in between the manly-man old school aftershaves (Pinaud: say, 2 hours) and the big money products (Chanel Blue: all day) or the UAE scents from Armaf or Afnan (definitely all day, but not necessarily in a good way).I am giving Twist five stars overall because I like what they are doing. The products come well packaged, the bottles have a minimalist, attractive design, and the value is a good one on a dollars-per-ounce basis. Customer service is responsive and personal.Bottom line: an interesting company turning out a pretty high quality, good value product, with many more hits than misses in my book. And it's working for me as I keep ordering new ones. I have Twist Salt No. 75 poking its way across the country right now, about which I have high hopes as I know I like the original Jo Malone scent.

This perfume is exactly like the soul de Janeiro, before they made the horrible changes that were supposed to make the fragrance last longer, except this one actually does last longer and it is the most beautiful, sexy, warm musky vanilla caramel scent I have ever worn! The best part is, you get 3.4 Oz for an incredibly low price! This stuff is amazing, a couple of spritzes will last you throughout most of the day, I applied it in the morning and towards the end of the work day I smelled my wrists just to see if it was still there and you can definitely still smell it! The sprayer itself creates a fine mist for even application. And as you are wearing this throughout the day the scent kind of changes a little bit - at first all of the top notes hit you, the vanilla and caramel, but throughout the day you can start to smell the pistachio, the almond etc and it really is a lovely sense. I've had many compliments and the boyfriend absolutely loves it! Definitely making this my daily perfume of choice, I'm never paying 80 bucks for that overpriced stuff again!

I am a huge Chanel fan and I happen to have a bottle of Chance Eau Tendre to directly compare this "inspired by" fragrance. Here is what I found. I put Twist on one wrist and Chance on the other to get the best direct comparison possible.The fragrances are similar for sure at first spray. They hit many of the same notes fresh out of the bottle but the dry down on me shows definite differences. Chanel is very soft, more floral, and lacking citrus pith sharpness. This Twist perfume is sharper by far and has way stronger bitter citrus notes. The longevity is good but I did get increasing sharpness over time that started to smell a bit chemically to my nose, similar to citronella/bug spray. The Chanel stayed soft throughout the day and tapered off in smell gradually. I actually think the Twist has more longevity but since it strays toward chemical weirdness on my skin, I don't think that's a good thing. Sorry, I'm not great at explaining scents but long/short is that Twist is sharp and more citrusy (think white kinda bitter part of the citrus) and Chance is soft and a bit more florally if that makes sense, and the longer they stay on my skin, the more the differences in the scent profiles are evident. The balance of the perfumes is way different.So here is what I came to conclusion of: Chanel is worth the money in comparison to this less expensive inspired by version for me personally. I don't hate the Twist version per se, and in fact I like it right out of the bottle, but the chemical bug spray-ish scent that comes out over time is a bit off-putting to me. This might not apply to everyone and might just be a reaction to my skin chemistry so don't completely rule out this version if you really want to try it for the price. It is not an exact dupe by a long shot but when first sprayed, does have a pleasant scent. I think personally I will retire the Twist and stick with the real deal. It might work well as a linen or air freshener spray, which is something I'll try out so I don't have to totally waste it. You can't beat the cost of Twist and it would be a great value if you find a scent that does work for you.I was very impressed with the bottle and the extra mini bottle sample of a scent that I received with the Twist perfume. You can tell they are a serious company trying their best to make inspired scents and they put effort into the packaging to make your experience receiving it very positive. This particular scent just happened to be a miss for me but I am not ruling them all out and I might try more in the future. I hope this helps someone wondering if they should take the hit to their pocketbook and head out to Chanel or order this and hope for a better scent match/skin chemistry match with this version.
