Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $23 it costs 91% less than Princess.

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

What it is chasing: bergamot and neroli up top, orange blossom and marshmallow in the middle, vanilla, musk and Tonka Bean underneath — the shape of By Kilian Princess.

Top

  • bergamot
  • neroli

Heart

  • orange blossom
  • marshmallow

Base

  • vanilla
  • musk
  • Tonka Bean
Fizzy neroli over marshmallow vanilla, sunny and sugared without tipping into cloying.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
