Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Silent Woods lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gris Dior.

HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gris Dior'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 $89 per 100ml it costs 66% less than Gris Dior — the 3rd cheapest of 3 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: bergamot, lemon and neroli up top, rose, jasmine and iris in the middle, oakmoss, patchouli and musk underneath — the shape of Dior Gris Dior.

Top

  • bergamot
  • lemon
  • neroli

Heart

  • rose
  • jasmine
  • iris

Base

  • oakmoss

Crisp citrus over dry moss and patchouli, tailored and coolly sophisticated.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
