Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Bamboo Whispers 0855 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Thé Matcha 26.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Thé Matcha 26'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 $114 per 100ml it costs 77% less than Thé Matcha 26 — the 5th cheapest of 6 twins we can price.
