The review
On paper, Gaiac X is a reasonable bet if you want Gaiac 10 for less.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gaiac 10's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $120 per 100ml it costs 45% less than Gaiac 10 — the cheapest of 2 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
The original opens on olibanum, turns to gaiac wood and cedarwood, and settles into musk, amber and vanilla. That is the brief Gaiac X is working from.

Smooth gaiac and clean musk, minimal to the point of meditation, Tokyo in a bottle.
