Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Tranquil lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Uden.

HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Uden'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 71% less than Uden — the 2nd cheapest of 5 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: saffron, pink pepper and bergamot up top, incense, leather and rose in the middle, oud, patchouli and amber underneath — the shape of Xerjoff Uden.

  • saffron
  • pink pepper
  • bergamot

Heart

  • incense
