Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

On paper, Mindset is a strong bet if you want MYSLF for less.

Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is MYSLF's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $40 it costs 76% less than MYSLF.

Value8.4
Evidence7.0

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 bergamot and orange blossom, turns to orange blossom and lavender, and settles into patchouli, ambrofix and woody notes. That is the brief Mindset is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • orange blossom

Heart

  • orange blossom
  • lavender

Base

  • patchouli
  • ambrofix
  • woody notes
Creamy orange blossom over ambery woods, contemporary and very easy to wear.
