Strong contender

The review
Strong contender. That is where West Side lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to West Side.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is West Side'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 81% less than West Side — the cheapest of 1 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.
