Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $23 it costs 95% less than Millesime Imperial.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Top

For the one who chases sunlit Mediterranean coastlines, wearing a salty, fruity citrus that evokes carefree seaside afternoons and gentle sea spray.
