The review
Strong contender. That is where Ethereal lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Fleur Narcotique.
AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Fleur Narcotique's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $69 per 100ml it costs 82% less than Fleur Narcotique — the 2nd cheapest of 7 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.
