The review
Ó·RA scores 5.9 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Cologne.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is 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 39% less than Cologne — the 5th cheapest of 14 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
Etat Libre d'Orange Cologne is lemon, bergamot and orange at first, neroli, orange blossom and jasmine at its heart and white musk, amber and cedar at the end. HK Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

A straight lemon-neroli cologne from the house of provocation, the joke being there is none.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
