The review

Temptation scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Himalaya.

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

At $69 per 100ml it costs 83% less than Himalaya — the 5th cheapest of 10 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.

Evidence6.0

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

Creed Himalaya is bergamot, grapefruit and lemon at first, sandalwood and cedar at its heart and musk, Tonka Bean and ambergris at the end. AromaPassions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • bergamot
  • grapefruit
  • lemon

Heart

  • sandalwood
  • cedar

Base

  • musk
  • Tonka Bean
  • ambergris
Grapefruit and sandalwood in a clean, airy composition made for everyday wear.

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