The review

Agar Fruit scores 6.7 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Cherry Oud.

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

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

At $114 per 100ml it costs 61% less than Cherry Oud — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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.

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

Guerlain Cherry Oud is cherry, bergamot and pink pepper at first, rose, cherry blossom and almond at its heart and oud, leather and patchouli at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
