The review

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

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

At $23 it costs 93% less than Shagya.

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 and cardamom, turns to cinnamon and tobacco, and settles into amber, vanilla and sandalwood. That is the brief Shagya is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • cardamom

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • tobacco

Base

  • amber
  • vanilla
  • sandalwood
A vintage-style amber, tobacco and vanilla warmth from the house's earliest days.

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 Parfums de Marly Shagya we can price, Shagya is number 2 on price per 100ml.
