The review

Angel scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Angel.

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

At $23 it costs 83% less than Angel.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes 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

Mugler Angel is cotton candy, bergamot and melon at first, honey, red berries and plum at its heart and patchouli, chocolate and caramel at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • cotton candy
  • bergamot
  • melon

Heart

  • honey
  • red berries
  • plum

Base

  • patchouli
  • chocolate
  • caramel
Cotton candy crashed into raw patchouli and rewrote perfumery; still the most divisive icon on any shelf.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
