Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Dune lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Dune.

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

At $23 it costs 79% less than Dune.

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

What it is chasing: mandarin orange, bergamot and aldehydes up top, broom, jasmine and rose in the middle, vanilla, sandalwood and patchouli underneath — the shape of Dior Dune.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • bergamot
  • aldehydes

Heart

  • broom
  • jasmine
  • rose

Base

  • vanilla
  • sandalwood
  • patchouli
Salted broom and amber over sandalwood, wistful and quite unlike anything else.

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