The review

Paradoxe Intense scores 5.6 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Paradoxe Intense.

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

At $125 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Paradoxe Intense — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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

Prada Paradoxe Intense is neroli, bergamot and pear at first, tuberose, jasmine and orange blossom at its heart and amber, vanilla and musk at the end. Oil Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Base

  • musk
Tuberose and vanilla thickening the neroli, warmer and considerably more insistent.

How it ranks against the other twins
