The review
Fakhar scores 8.0 out of 10 on paper — top pick territory for anyone chasing Japon Noir.
Lattafa sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Japon Noir's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $45 per 100ml it costs 88% less than Japon Noir — the cheapest of 2 twins we can price.
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
Tom Ford Japon Noir is aldehydes, bergamot and black pepper at first, osmanthus, incense and cardamom at its heart and woody notes, amber and benzoin at the end. Lattafa set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- aldehydes
- bergamot
- black pepper
Heart
- osmanthus
- incense
- cardamom
Base
- woody notes
- amber
- benzoin
Aldehydes and osmanthus over incense and warm woods; refined, smoky and quietly opulent.
