The review
On paper, Generous is a reasonable bet if you want Idôle for less.
AromaPassions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Idôle's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $69 per 100ml it costs 56% less than Idôle — the 6th cheapest of 9 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 AromaPassions 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 pear, bergamot and rose, turns to rose and jasmine, and settles into white musk, vanilla and patchouli. That is the brief Generous is working from.
Top
- pear
- bergamot
- rose
Heart
- rose
- jasmine
Base
- white musk
- vanilla
- patchouli
Fresh rose and jasmine over white musk, crisp and reliably office-friendly.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
