The review

On paper, Golden Hour is a reasonable bet if you want J'adore for less.

Àerre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is J'adore's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $45 it costs 67% less than J'adore.

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

The original opens on pear, melon and magnolia, turns to jasmine, tuberose and rose, and settles into musk, vanilla and blackberry. That is the brief Golden Hour is working from.

Top

  • pear
  • melon
  • magnolia

Heart

  • jasmine
  • tuberose
  • rose

Base

  • musk
  • vanilla
  • blackberry
Sun-warmed jasmine and tuberose with fruity gloss, glossy and unmistakably Dior.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
