The review

On paper, Admiring For Men is a strong bet if you want The Tragedy of Lord George for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is The Tragedy of Lord George's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

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

At $122 per 100ml it costs 49% less than The Tragedy of Lord George — the 4th cheapest of 4 twins we can price.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour 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 brandy, lavender and sage, turns to Tonka Bean, geranium and carrot seed, and settles into sandalwood, vanilla and amber. That is the brief Admiring For Men is working from.

Top

  • brandy

Warm brandy and tonka over sandalwood, the stag-headed fragrance that built a whole collection.
