Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $23 it costs 91% less than Gold.

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: saffron and citrus up top, rose, jasmine and amber in the middle, sandalwood, vanilla and musk underneath — the shape of Puredistance Gold.

Saffron and rose gilded with amber, unashamedly rich and ceremonial.

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