The review
On paper, Game of Spades Royale is a strong bet if you want Tribeca for less.
Jo Milano sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Tribeca's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: parfum, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $85 per 100ml it costs 81% less than Tribeca — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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 Jo Milano 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
The original opens on bergamot, fig and blackcurrant, turns to jasmine and violet, and settles into cedar, patchouli and musk. That is the brief Game of Spades Royale is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- fig
- blackcurrant
Heart
- jasmine
- violet
Base
- cedar
- patchouli
- musk
Fig and blackcurrant over cedar, downtown lofts with the windows open.
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 2 twins of Bond No. 9 Tribeca we can price, Game of Spades Royale is number 2 on price per 100ml.
