Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

At $23 it costs 94% less than Reflection Man.

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: rosemary, pink pepper and bergamot up top, jasmine, neroli and ylang in the middle, sandalwood, cedar and vetiver underneath — the shape of Amouage Reflection Man.

Top

  • rosemary
  • pink pepper
  • bergamot

Heart

  • jasmine
  • neroli
  • ylang

Base

  • sandalwood
  • cedar
  • vetiver
For understated grace. Airy jasmine and neroli drift across creamy sandalwood — floral, refined, effortlessly gentlemanly.

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