The review
On paper, Fortnight for Men is a strong bet if you want Fahrenheit for less.
Maison Alhambra lists 1 of the 12 notes in Fahrenheit's pyramid — bergamot. What it does not list: mandarin orange, lavender, hawthorn and violet leaf; and it adds tonka, lemon and cedar wood of its own.
Strength: parfum, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $17 per 100ml it costs 88% less than Fahrenheit — the cheapest of 20 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 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
The original opens on mandarin orange, bergamot and lavender, turns to violet leaf, nutmeg and cedar, and settles into leather, vetiver and musk. That is the brief Fortnight for Men is working from.

Base

For the one who refuses to blend in, this petrol-tinged violet-leather landmark polarizes rooms and rewards the bold with unmistakable eighties swagger.
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 26 twins of Dior Fahrenheit we can price, Fortnight for Men is the cheapest per 100ml.
