The review
Balance in Motion scores 6.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Paradigme.
Àerre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Paradigme's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $39 it costs 71% less than Paradigme.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Àerre publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Prada Paradigme is bergamot, grapefruit and cardamom at first, lavender, iris and geranium at its heart and Ambroxan, cedar and vetiver at the end. Àerre set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top

Heart

Base

A cool, ambroxan-driven masculine positioned as Prada's next big men's pillar.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
