Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $133 per 100ml it costs 72% less than California Dream — the 5th cheapest of 6 twins we can price.

Value8.0
