FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Worth a try. That is where Heavy Petal lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Flowerbomb.

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

At $70 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Flowerbomb — the 16th cheapest of 22 twins we can price.
