The review
On paper, Frederic Malle is a strong bet if you want Lipstick Rose for less.
Oil Perfumery sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Lipstick Rose's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $125 per 100ml it costs 74% less than Lipstick Rose — the 2nd cheapest of 3 twins we can price.
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 grapefruit and blackcurrant, turns to rose and violet, and settles into vanilla, musk and amber. That is the brief Frederic Malle is working from.
Top
- grapefruit
- blackcurrant
Heart
- rose
- violet
Base
- vanilla
- musk
- amber
Rose and violet in a warm powdery haze — the scent of retro makeup, gorgeously done.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 4 twins of Frédéric Malle Lipstick Rose we can price, Frederic Malle is number 3 on price per 100ml.
