The review
A long shot. That is where Philos Shine lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Maraschino.
Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Maraschino'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.
It is $30 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
