The review
On paper, Bonjour Sweetheart is a reasonable bet if you want French Lover for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is French Lover's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $159 per 100ml it costs 40% less than French Lover — the cheapest of 1 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 angelica, juniper and pepper, turns to incense and galbanum, and settles into cedar and vetiver. That is the brief Bonjour Sweetheart is working from.
Top
- angelica
- juniper
- pepper
Heart
- incense
- galbanum
Base
- cedar
- vetiver
Cool angelica and incense over dry cedar — cerebral, green and quietly commanding.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 2 twins of Frédéric Malle French Lover we can price, Bonjour Sweetheart is the cheapest per 100ml.
- 01 Perfume Parlour Bonjour Sweetheart $159/100ml
- 02 Palermo Perfumes French Lover $22.75
