Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Sunshine Embers lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Greenwich Village.

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

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

At $50 it costs 89% less than Greenwich Village.

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 Mod Fragrances 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: green notes, bergamot and melon up top, lily of the valley, jasmine and rose in the middle, musk, cedar and amber underneath — the shape of Bond No. 9 Greenwich Village.
