FragDNA score · on paper

The review

The Night scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing The Night.

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

At $250 per 100ml it costs 73% less than The Night — the 3rd cheapest of 3 twins we can price.

Value8.1
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

Frédéric Malle The Night is saffron and aldehydes at first, Turkish Rose and agarwood (oud) at its heart and patchouli, amber and leather at the end. Oil Perfumery set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • saffron
  • aldehydes

Heart

  • Turkish Rose
  • agarwood (oud)

Base

  • patchouli
  • amber
  • leather
A dense, luxurious rose-oud saturated with amber and patchouli — decadent and dark.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 4 twins of Frédéric Malle The Night we can price, The Night is number 3 on price per 100ml.

  1. 01 Perfume Parlour Night Dream $159/100ml
