The review
On paper, Falcon is a strong bet if you want Althaïr for less.
ALT Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Althaïr's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $82 per 100ml it costs 79% less than Althaïr — the 19th cheapest of 25 twins we can price.
The match is claimed by more than one source, which is as firm as a pairing gets.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength ALT 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 cinnamon, orange blossom and cardamom, turns to bourbon vanilla and elemi, and settles into praline, musk and Ambroxan. That is the brief Falcon is working from.
Top
- cinnamon
- orange blossom
- cardamom
Heart
- bourbon vanilla
- elemi
Base
- praline
- musk
- Ambroxan
Cinnamon and cardamom over bourbon vanilla, landing on praline and candied almond — a warm gourmand built for cold weather.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 29 twins of Parfums de Marly Althaïr we can price, Falcon is number 19 on price per 100ml.
