Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $125 per 100ml it costs 78% less than Oud for Happiness — the 6th cheapest of 7 twins we can price.
