The review
On paper, L'Homme Ultime is a strong bet if you want L'Homme Ultime for less.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is L'Homme Ultime's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 80% less than L'Homme Ultime.
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 cinnamon, turns to sage, nutmeg and violet leaf, and settles into Tonka Bean, cedar and amberwood. That is the brief L'Homme Ultime is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- grapefruit
- cinnamon
Heart
- sage
- nutmeg
- violet leaf
Base
- Tonka Bean
- cedar
- amberwood
Cinnamon and nutmeg pushed through L'Homme's citrus frame into a warm tonka landing.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
