The FragDNA review

Balman look‑alike, not Another 13 – and that’s fine

Bujairami Mysterious Blend 13 is marketed as a twin of Le Labo Another 13, yet it has found a niche among those who stumbled upon it by accident. Priced well below most niche offerings, it appeals to bargain hunters looking for a distinctive aromatic scent, and many reviewers note the surprising depth of its composition despite the modest price tag.

The opening is unmistakably eucalyptus‑lavender, a departure from the pear‑apple‑citrus fruitiness of Another 13. While the dry‑down introduces a powdery tonka‑sandalwood accord that some find pleasant, it does not develop the mossy‑jasmine amber that defines the original. Reviewers consistently compare it to the Balman fragrance, highlighting the linear, aromatic progression rather than any fruity nuance.

Performance is respectable: the scent lingers for most of the day but remains skin‑bound, offering a moderate sillage that won’t overwhelm. Its value lies in the affordable price and the aromatic freshness it delivers, making it suitable for warm weather or office environments. Those who enjoy crisp, green openings and a subtle sweet base will appreciate it, while fans of Another 13’s fruit‑amber profile may stay disappointed.

The verdictMysterious Blend 13 bears little resemblance to Another 13, aligning more with Balman’s aromatic profile; it’s a solid, affordable option for fans of fresh, eucalyptus‑lavender scents.

Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

On paper

Strong contender. That is where Mysterious Blend 13 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Another 13.

Bujairami sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Another 13's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 it costs 87% less than Another 13.
