The review

Carlisle scores 6.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Carlisle.

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

At $125 per 100ml it costs 66% less than Carlisle — the 5th cheapest of 7 twins we can price.

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

Parfums de Marly Carlisle is green apple, saffron and nutmeg at first, Tonka Bean, osmanthus and davana at its heart and vanilla, patchouli and opoponax at the end. Oil Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • green apple
  • saffron
  • nutmeg

Heart

  • Tonka Bean
  • osmanthus
  • davana

Base

  • vanilla
  • patchouli
  • opoponax
For the one who wants a spicy apple-and-saffron opening melting into warm tonka, vanilla and patchouli, an opulent bright-meets-dark statement with real presence.
