A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Fab lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Nº 5.

HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Nº 5's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

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

It is $89 per 100ml.

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.
