The review

Daim Blond scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Daim Blond.

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

At $23 it costs 93% less than Daim Blond.

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

Serge Lutens Daim Blond is apricot, cardamom and hawthorn at first, iris, musk and heliotrope at its heart and suede, musk and amber at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
