Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

L'Interdit scores 6.6 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing L'Interdit.

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

At $23 it costs 81% less than L'Interdit.

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

Givenchy L'Interdit is aldehydes, bergamot and mandarin orange at first, iris, violet and jasmine at its heart and sandalwood, vetiver and amber at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
