The review

Worth a try. That is where Spectrum lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Elysium.

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

It is sold as a parfum — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Strength9.0
Evidence6.0

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

What it is chasing: grapefruit, lemon and bergamot up top, blackcurrant, juniper and cypress in the middle, vetiver, cedar and ambergris underneath — the shape of Roja Parfums Elysium.

Top

  • grapefruit
  • lemon
  • bergamot

Heart

  • blackcurrant
  • juniper
  • cypress

Base

  • vetiver
  • cedar
  • ambergris
For the golden hour. Sparkling grapefruit and blackcurrant meet vetiver and ambergris — fresh, luminous and quietly seductive.

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