Scent: This is very obviously Echo by Davidoff, Scion got it very well from the top-notes to the drydown. The stuff is really strong, the room smells like it after two sprays. I have a tester of echo at home so I am able to compare in detail. In short: there is very little difference between Echo and Paradero. Both have a synthetic smell and heavily remind me of Chrome by Azarro. They are very fresh and can well be used for business purposes. After a couple of hours, Paradero seemed to become slightly sweeter but this is quite a detail oberservance.
Lasting Power: More than 12 hours on skin, even way longer on clothes. No difference to Echo.
Packaging: Excellent, looks great with a unique design, however bottle is not overly practical.
Verdict: Definite buy for people who like the echo scent.
Random: Scion International is one of the biggest names in the imitate market. They have several product lines, with Creation Lamis, Dorall and Stitch being the most widespread. While Creation Lamis is supposed to be positioned as their top-quality line, dorall and stitch retial for even less but also usually with lower perfume concentration.
