The review

Olympea scores 6.1 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Olympéa.

Copycat Fragrances describes it with jasmine and ginger lily — a different vocabulary from Olympéa's pyramid, so judge it on the votes below as much as the notes.

At $29 per 100ml it costs 69% less than Olympéa — the 2nd cheapest of 11 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.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Copycat Fragrances 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

Paco Rabanne Olympéa is water jasmine and green mandarin at first, salted vanilla and ginger flower at its heart and sandalwood, ambergris and cashmere wood at the end. Copycat Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • water jasmine
  • green mandarin

Heart

  • salted vanilla
  • ginger flower

Base

  • sandalwood
  • ambergris
  • cashmere wood
Salty vanilla and jasmine over ambergris, addictive and distinctly moreish.

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

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 13 twins of Paco Rabanne Olympéa we can price, Olympea is number 2 on price per 100ml.
