The review

Worth a try. That is where The Lion's Club Rugir lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Layton.

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

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

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: apple, bergamot and mandarin up top, lavender, geranium and violet in the middle, vanilla, guaiac wood and cardamom underneath — the shape of Parfums de Marly Layton.

Top

  • apple
  • bergamot
  • mandarin

Heart

  • lavender
  • geranium
  • violet

Base

  • vanilla
  • guaiac wood
  • cardamom
For the one who lingers in memory. Crisp apple and bergamot melt into spiced vanilla and guaiac — sweet, warm, unforgettable.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
