The review
On paper, Himalaya is a strong bet if you want Himalaya for less.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Himalaya's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 94% less than Himalaya.
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
The original opens on bergamot, grapefruit and lemon, turns to sandalwood and cedar, and settles into musk, Tonka Bean and ambergris. That is the brief Himalaya is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- grapefruit
- lemon
Heart
- sandalwood
- cedar
Base
- musk
- Tonka Bean
- ambergris
Grapefruit and sandalwood in a clean, airy composition made for everyday wear.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
