The review
On paper, Rive Gauche is a reasonable bet if you want Rive Gauche for less.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Rive Gauche's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $23 it costs 73% less than Rive Gauche.
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 aldehydes, bergamot and peach, turns to rose, iris and jasmine, and settles into sandalwood, oakmoss and vetiver. That is the brief Rive Gauche is working from.
Top
- aldehydes
- bergamot
- peach
Heart
- rose
- iris
- jasmine
Base
- sandalwood
- oakmoss
- vetiver
Cold metallic rose and iris, chic in a way that refuses to flatter.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 3 twins of Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche we can price, Rive Gauche is number 3 on price per 100ml.
