The review

Worth a try. That is where Perpetual lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Uomo Born in Roma.

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

At $69 per 100ml it costs 43% less than Uomo Born in Roma — the 3rd cheapest of 6 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.
