Widely agreedMykonos
Conquer
Three separate owners of both bottles weighed in. One puts it at 90% and says it needed a couple of weeks to settle; another finds it close but brighter, fresher and sweeter than the original, and better suited to a hot day where the original leans heavier on spice. Roughly seven to eight hours. The common complaint is availability, not quality.
Widely agreedRasasi
Hawas Thunder
At least 80 percent there, but lighter — less sweet and less dense than the original, which makes it read fresher. Owners say something is missing in the drydown, possibly the patchouli.

Deep orange blossom and dark vanilla with rich amber woods It opens on Bergamot, Ginger, Cardamom.
MYSLF L'Absolu is the latest and most intense version of YSL's MYSLF line. Building on the orange blossom and vanilla DNA of the original, this version pushes deeper with richer amber, more prominent woods, and a darker overall character. An evening fragrance for fall and winter. Still new, with limited reviews available, but early impressions suggest it is the most niche-leaning entry in the MYSLF family.
