The review
On paper, Apple Brandy is a reasonable bet if you want Apple Brandy for less.
Oil Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Apple Brandy's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $152 per 100ml it costs 73% less than Apple Brandy — the 4th cheapest of 4 twins we can price.
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 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
The original opens on green apple and rum, turns to cinnamon and oak, and settles into vanilla, sandalwood and Tonka Bean. That is the brief Apple Brandy is working from.
Top
- green apple
- rum
Heart
- cinnamon
- oak
Base
- vanilla
- sandalwood
- Tonka Bean
Crisp apple drowned in aged brandy and oak, boozy and warm as a cellar in October.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 5 twins of By Kilian Apple Brandy we can price, Apple Brandy is number 4 on price per 100ml.
