The review

Worth a try. That is where Habik lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Le Male Essence de Parfum.

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

At $32 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Le Male Essence de Parfum — the cheapest of 4 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.
