The review
Ebony Flame scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Ébène Fumé.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Ébène Fumé's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $110 per 100ml it costs 82% less than Ébène Fumé — the 4th cheapest of 5 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.

Tom Ford Ébène Fumé is black pepper, olibanum and laurel at first, ebony, oud and benzoin at its heart and incense, sandalwood and patchouli at the end. Alexandria Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
