Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

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

Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

At $38 per 100ml it costs 95% less than Blonde Amber — the 2nd cheapest of 6 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

What it is chasing: aldehydes, bergamot and spices up top, dried fruits, jasmine and orange blossom in the middle, amber, blonde tobacco and vanilla underneath — the shape of Clive Christian Blonde Amber.

  • spices

Heart

  • dried fruits
