To me they smell almost identical.
Well, while they do share a citric top and a rose middle note, AdPC finds a nice balance between fresh and powdery. No 89 kills the citric top notes 5 min after the application and then the powder dominates completely. I cannot stand it.
Another thing that is different is that the citric of No 89 smells like bergamote while AdPC smells more like lemon-lime. Of course, YMMV
True, but it is rare that you compare out-of-the-bottle scents (which are loaded with solvents like alcohol and isopropyl alcohol anyway) or scents straight after application.What I meant was if just smelling straight from the bottle or even at first on the skin, the two are quite alike.
