The review
Worth a try. That is where Cali Love lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to California Dream.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is California Dream's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $120 per 100ml it costs 59% less than California Dream — the 4th cheapest of 6 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances 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
What it is chasing: mandarin orange up top, pear in the middle, musk, ambrette and benzoin underneath — the shape of Louis Vuitton California Dream.
Top
- mandarin orange
Heart
- pear
Base

- ambrette

Mandarin and pear dissolving into ambrette musk, hazy and soft-focus, light through a car window.
