The review
Royal Touch scores 6.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Flora Gorgeous Gardenia.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Flora Gorgeous Gardenia's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $64 per 100ml it costs 47% less than Flora Gorgeous Gardenia — the 7th cheapest of 10 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
Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia is pear and red berries at first, gardenia and frangipani at its heart and brown sugar and patchouli at the end. HK Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- pear
- red berries
Heart
- gardenia
- frangipani
Base
- brown sugar
- patchouli
Pear and red berries dissolving into creamy gardenia and brown sugar; sweet, loud and very likeable.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 11 twins of Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia we can price, Royal Touch is number 7 on price per 100ml.
