The review

On paper, Assassin is a strong bet if you want A*Men Pure Malt for less.

Bujairami sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is A*Men Pure Malt's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 per 100ml it costs 82% less than A*Men Pure Malt — the cheapest of 3 twins we can price.

Value9.1
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Bujairami 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 bergamot and mint, turns to whisky accord, honey and caramel, and settles into patchouli, vanilla and Tonka Bean. That is the brief Assassin is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • mint

Heart

  • whisky accord
  • honey

Base

  • patchouli
  • vanilla
  • Tonka Bean
Smoky single-malt poured over the A*Men caramel base; the cult grail of the Pure series.
