Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Afternoon Swim lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Afternoon Swim.

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

At $133 per 100ml it costs 72% less than Afternoon Swim — the 19th cheapest of 20 twins we can price.

Value8.0
Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Oil Perfumery 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: mandarin orange, sicilian orange and bergamot up top, ginger in the middle, ambergris underneath — the shape of Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim.
