The review
Scandalous scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Scandal Pour Homme.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Scandal Pour Homme's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $117 per 100ml it costs 84% less than Scandal Pour Homme — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
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
Roja Parfums Scandal Pour Homme is lemon, bergamot and aldehydes at first, violet leaf, orris and jasmine at its heart and leather, oakmoss and vetiver at the end. Alexandria Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Crisp violet leaf and orris over mossy leather, sophisticated and refined.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
