The review

Misplaced Memories scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Thé Noir 29.

Àerre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Thé Noir 29's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $55 it costs 78% less than Thé Noir 29.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

What it's built to smell like

Le Labo Thé Noir 29 is bergamot, fig and bay leaf at first, cedar, vetiver and musk at its heart and tobacco and hay at the end. Àerre set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

For the one who reads by candlelight, brewing strong black tea while fig and smoky cedar drift quietly through a cool, contemplative evening.

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