The review

Punica Noir scores 4.7 out of 10 on paper — a long shot territory for anyone chasing Pomegranate Noir.

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

At $110 per 100ml it costs 27% less than Pomegranate Noir — the 6th cheapest of 7 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

Jo Malone London Pomegranate Noir is pomegranate, raspberry and plum at first, casablanca lily and frankincense at its heart and guaiac wood, patchouli and musk at the end. Alexandria Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
