The review

On paper, Black Orchid is a reasonable bet if you want Black Orchid for less.

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

At $125 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Black Orchid — the 17th cheapest of 18 twins we can price.

Value6.9
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

The original opens on truffle, gardenia and black currant, turns to orchid, spices and lotus, and settles into patchouli, vanilla and incense. That is the brief Black Orchid is working from.

Top

  • truffle
  • gardenia
  • black currant

Heart

  • orchid
  • spices
  • lotus

Base

  • patchouli
  • vanilla
  • incense
A lush, dark oriental of orchid, truffle and chocolate; unmistakable, seductive and boldly glamorous.
