The review
On paper, Aurora is a strong bet if you want Oriana for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Oriana'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 79% less than Oriana — the 9th cheapest of 11 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
The original opens on red berries, pomegranate and bergamot, turns to marshmallow and jasmine, and settles into musk, vanilla and sandalwood. That is the brief Aurora is working from.
Top
- red berries
- pomegranate
- bergamot
Heart
- marshmallow
- jasmine
Base
- musk
- vanilla
- sandalwood
Bright red berries and fluffy marshmallow over clean musk for a fun, cozy sweetness.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

Of the 12 twins of Parfums de Marly Oriana we can price, Aurora is number 9 on price per 100ml.
