The review

On paper, Fakhar Lil Rijal is a reasonable bet if you want Y Eau de Parfum for less.

Lattafa sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Y Eau de Parfum's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Lattafa 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 apple, ginger and bergamot, turns to sage, juniper berries and geranium, and settles into amberwood, Tonka Bean and cedar. That is the brief Fakhar Lil Rijal is working from.

Top

  • apple
  • ginger
  • bergamot

Heart

  • sage
  • juniper berries
  • geranium

Base

  • amberwood
  • Tonka Bean
  • cedar
For the one who lives in a crisp white tee and sharp jacket, wanting a fresh woody signature that quietly earns constant compliments.
