The review
Strong contender. That is where The Myth lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to A Song for the Rose.
Maison Alhambra sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is A Song for the Rose's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 per 100ml it costs 94% less than A Song for the Rose — the cheapest of 1 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
What it is chasing: damask rose up top, Bulgarian Rose and rose absolute in the middle, patchouli and musk underneath — the shape of Gucci A Song for the Rose.
Top
- damask rose
Heart
- Bulgarian Rose
- rose absolute
Base
- patchouli
- musk
Layered rose extractions over dark patchouli; the Alchemist's Garden at its most straightforwardly beautiful.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
