The review
Playing with the Devil scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Playing with the Devil.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Playing with the Devil's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 91% less than Playing with the Devil.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

What it's built to smell like
By Kilian Playing with the Devil is peach, plum and pink pepper at first, tuberose, rose and jasmine at its heart and musk, vanilla and sandalwood at the end. Palermo Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
