FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Aroma Essence scores 6.6 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing APOM Pour Femme.

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

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $83 per 100ml it costs 53% less than APOM Pour Femme — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.

What it's built to smell like

Maison Francis Kurkdjian APOM Pour Femme is orange blossom at first, ylang-ylang and white flowers at its heart and cedar and woody notes at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
