The review

On paper, Ambery Cedarwood is a strong bet if you want Alien for less.

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

At $64 per 100ml it costs 75% less than Alien — the 11th cheapest of 12 twins we can price.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Dossier 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 jasmine sambac, turns to Cashmeran, and settles into white amber and woody notes. That is the brief Ambery Cedarwood is working from.

Top

  • jasmine sambac

Heart

  • Cashmeran

Base

  • white amber
  • woody notes
A single towering jasmine over glowing amber wood; loud, hypnotic and impossible to mistake.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 15 twins of Mugler Alien we can price, Ambery Cedarwood is number 11 on price per 100ml.
