The review

On paper, Tonka Tease is a strong bet if you want Tonka Impériale for less.

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

At $33 per 100ml it costs 91% less than Tonka Impériale — the cheapest of 3 twins we can price.

Value10.0
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 almond, bergamot and rosemary, turns to Tonka Bean, honey and tobacco, and settles into Tonka Bean, vanilla and cedar. That is the brief Tonka Tease is working from.

Toasted almond and honeyed tobacco over tonka; a gourmand with the bearing of a classic.
