The review

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

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

At $110 per 100ml it costs 71% less than Elysium — the 13th cheapest of 15 twins we can price.

What it is chasing: grapefruit, lemon and bergamot up top, blackcurrant, juniper and cypress in the middle, vetiver, cedar and ambergris underneath — the shape of Roja Parfums Elysium.
