The review

On paper, Renaissance is a strong bet if you want Renaissance for less.

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

At $23 it costs 92% less than Renaissance.

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

The original opens on bergamot, orange blossom and pink pepper, turns to jasmine, neroli and freesia, and settles into musk, sandalwood and amber. That is the brief Renaissance is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • orange blossom
  • pink pepper

Heart

  • jasmine

Base

  • musk
  • sandalwood
  • amber
Bright orange blossom and jasmine over a soft, luminous white musk.

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