The review
Strong contender. That is where Clary Sage lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Fucking Fabulous.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Fucking Fabulous's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $64 per 100ml it costs 92% less than Fucking Fabulous — the 6th cheapest of 15 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 HK Perfumes 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: bitter almond and clary sage up top, orris and leather in the middle, Tonka Bean, Cashmeran and vanilla underneath — the shape of Tom Ford Fucking Fabulous.
Top
- bitter almond
- clary sage
Heart
- orris
- leather
Base
- Tonka Bean
- Cashmeran
- vanilla
For the one who wants creamy leather laced with bitter almond and clary sage, a soft powdery provocation as hedonistic as Studio 54.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
