I debated for quite some time, whether or not to get The One That Got Away from the Katy Perry Collection simply because I already had Diva of Geneva from the Swiss Collection. Even though I hadn't being able to compare the bottles side by side, I felt that they were going to be dupes of one another. However, my need to have at least one complete OPI collection broke down my logic and I caved and bought The One That Got Away.
When I got home and compared the two bottles, they were identical. I didn't know which was which without looking at the name. The first picture shows that they look identical but the lighting in the second picture highlights the pinker tint in The One That Got Away.

Thankfully when I swatched both of them it became evident that they were no where near dupes as Diva of Geneva was more purple whereas The One That Got Away was more of a pink/magenta shade.

And finally, the nails side by side to show that they are nowhere near dupes!

The application of the both of these was perfect.
I'm delighted that I bought The One That Got Away and I'm now the proud owner of an entire (mini) OPI collection! (Yay! :D)
Its mad that they can look identical in the bottle and so different on the nail. I guess it proves swatching is important!!

Yea it definitely shows how important swatching is, I really didn't think that they were going to be that dissimilar!
