The review
Promise Speciale scores 5.3 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Promise.
Montagne Parfums lists 1 of the 7 notes in Promise's pyramid — rose. What it does not list: cinnamon, cardamom, agarwood (oud) and sandalwood; and it adds pink pepper, clove and cypriol of its own.
Strength: parfum, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

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
Frédéric Malle Promise is cinnamon and cardamom at first, rose and agarwood (oud) at its heart and sandalwood, cistus and ambrette at the end. Montagne Parfums set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Cinnamon-dusted rose over oud and sandalwood — warm, spicy and enveloping.
