A long shot

The review
Anchor Black scores 4.3 out of 10 on paper — a long shot territory for anyone chasing Encre Noire.
Maison Alhambra describes it with cardamom, jasmine, black leather and patchouli — a different vocabulary from Encre Noire's pyramid, so judge it on the votes below as much as the notes.
It is sold as a parfum — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
It is $14 per 100ml.
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 Maison Alhambra 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
Maison Alhambra lists Anchor Black as its take on Lalique Encre Noire.
