Very true, but I'm pretty sure Instant Crush is a BR540 copy so he is 20% right here lol

Instant Crush is already a clone of BR 540 🤔

Ehhh Instant Crush is different enough than BR540 to be considered “inspired by.”

Instant Crush is kind of a clone of br540...Mancera is already what I consider value priced for the quality and presentation they give you so I would just pick it up for 80 bucks or whatever.

Mancera Instant Crush is a BR540 alternative that leans more woody masculine with a hint of rose (to my nose)

It's a great clone to Instant Crush which itself is a nice fragrance in the style of BR540.
