The review
Worth a try. That is where Excellus Men lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to CH Men.
Armaf sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is CH Men's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $45 per 100ml it costs 40% less than CH Men — the cheapest of 4 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 Armaf 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
What it is chasing: bergamot, grapefruit and nutmeg up top, leather, jasmine and cedar in the middle, leather, sandalwood and sugar underneath — the shape of Carolina Herrera CH Men.
Top
- bergamot
- grapefruit
- nutmeg
Heart
- leather
- jasmine
- cedar
Base
- leather
- sandalwood
- sugar
Saffron and nutmeg over sweet leather, refined and pleasingly old-world.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
