Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where 14th lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Viking Cologne.

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

Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

At $89 per 100ml it costs 70% less than Viking Cologne — the cheapest of 6 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.

What it is chasing: pink pepper, bergamot and lemon up top, mint, lavender and rosemary in the middle, sandalwood, vetiver and ambergris underneath — the shape of Creed Viking Cologne.
