The review
Jean Lowe Fraiche scores 7.4 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Afternoon Swim.
Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Afternoon Swim's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an eau de parfum, the strength most designer originals are sold at.
At $33 per 100ml it costs 89% less than Afternoon Swim — the 3rd 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
Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim is mandarin orange, sicilian orange and bergamot at first, ginger at its heart and ambergris at the end. Maison Alhambra set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- mandarin orange
- sicilian orange
- bergamot
Heart
- ginger
Base
- ambergris
Orange and ginger over salt-slick ambergris, fizzing and cold, a pool at four in the afternoon.
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 Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim we can price, Jean Lowe Fraiche is number 3 on price per 100ml.
