The review
On paper, Purple Delight is a reasonable bet if you want Narcotic Delight for less.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Narcotic Delight's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $120 per 100ml it costs 65% less than Narcotic Delight — 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.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on cherry and cinnamon, turns to tobacco and Tonka Bean, and settles into vanilla, amber and musk. That is the brief Purple Delight is working from.
Top
- cherry
- cinnamon
Heart
- tobacco
- Tonka Bean
Base
- vanilla
- amber
- musk
Dark boozy cherry meets tobacco, tonka and vanilla for a rich, addictive cold-weather gourmand.
