The review

Rose Origami scores 7.3 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Café Rose.

Maison Alhambra describes it with turkish rose and coffee — a different vocabulary from Café Rose's pyramid, so judge it on the votes below as much as the notes.

Strength: eau de parfum, on a par with most originals.

At $25 it costs 85% less than Café Rose.

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

Tom Ford Café Rose is saffron, black pepper and pink pepper at first, rose, may rose and Turkish Rose at its heart and sandalwood, patchouli and amber at the end. Maison Alhambra set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • saffron
  • black pepper
  • pink pepper

Heart

  • rose
  • may rose
  • Turkish Rose

Base

  • sandalwood
  • patchouli
  • amber
Dark roses steeped in coffee and spice for a rich, intoxicating gourmand-floral with real depth.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
