The review

City of Stars scores 5.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing City of Stars.

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

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

Evidence6.0

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

Louis Vuitton City of Stars is blood orange, lime and blood mandarin at first, tiare flower at its heart and powdery notes, musk and sandalwood at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • blood orange
  • lime
  • blood mandarin

Heart

  • tiare flower

Base

  • powdery notes
  • musk
  • sandalwood
Blood orange and tiare over powdered musk, bright then suddenly soft, palm shadows at golden hour.

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