Strong contender
FragDNA score · on paper
The review
Strong contender. That is where Ebony Smoke lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Ébène Fumé.
Fragrance World sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Ébène Fumé's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $29 per 100ml it costs 95% less than Ébène Fumé — the 2nd cheapest of 7 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 Fragrance World 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
What it is chasing: black pepper, olibanum and laurel up top, ebony, oud and benzoin in the middle, incense, sandalwood and patchouli underneath — the shape of Tom Ford Ébène Fumé.
