The review

On paper, L'Interdit is a reasonable bet if you want L'Interdit for less.

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

At $125 per 100ml it costs 38% less than L'Interdit — the 5th cheapest of 5 twins we can price.

Value4.2
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 aldehydes, bergamot and mandarin orange, turns to iris, violet and jasmine, and settles into sandalwood, vetiver and amber. That is the brief L'Interdit is working from.
