The review
Worth a try. That is where Apple Crumb lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Oajan.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Oajan's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $110 per 100ml it costs 65% less than Oajan — the 2nd cheapest of 5 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
