The review

On paper, Been Good Before is a strong bet if you want Good Girl Gone Bad for less.

Chez Pierre sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Good Girl Gone Bad's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $78 per 100ml it costs 87% less than Good Girl Gone Bad — the 6th cheapest of 13 twins we can price.

The match is claimed by more than one source, which is as firm as a pairing gets.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Chez Pierre 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 osmanthus, turns to tuberose, jasmine and may rose, and settles into narcissus, cedar and amber. That is the brief Been Good Before is working from.

For the one who blooms in osmanthus, tuberose and jasmine, an airy yet seductive floral bouquet with a soft, peachy powdery glow.
