Strong contender

The review
Cashmere Rose Inspired scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Carmina.
Montagne Parfums sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Carmina's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $45 it costs 90% less than Carmina.
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 Montagne Parfums 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
Creed Carmina is bergamot, mandarin and blackcurrant at first, rose and jasmine at its heart and patchouli, musk and vanilla at the end. Montagne Parfums set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- bergamot
- mandarin
- blackcurrant
Heart
- rose
- jasmine
Base
- patchouli
- musk
- vanilla
Plush rose and blackcurrant grounded by warm patchouli and vanilla.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
