FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Aromatic Pineapple scores 6.1 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Y.

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

At $49 per 100ml it costs 64% less than Y — the 8th cheapest of 10 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

Yves Saint Laurent Y is bergamot, ginger and aldehydes at first, sage, violet leaf and geranium at its heart and cedar, olibanum and Tonka Bean at the end. Dossier set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
