FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Amber Absolute scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Amber Absolute.

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

At $133 per 100ml it costs 80% less than Amber Absolute — the 3rd cheapest of 3 twins we can price.

Value8.9
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

Tom Ford Amber Absolute is incense, labdanum and bergamot at first, amber, benzoin and vanilla at its heart and woody notes, frankincense and balsam at the end. Oil Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
