FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Fruity Brown Sugar scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Mon Paris.

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

At $49 per 100ml it costs 73% less than Mon Paris — the 3rd cheapest of 6 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 Mon Paris is strawberry, raspberry and pear at first, datura, jasmine and orange blossom at its heart and patchouli, white musk and Ambroxan at the end. Dossier set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
