Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Deer Wood lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Musk Aoud.

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

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

At $122 per 100ml it costs 76% less than Musk Aoud — the 2nd cheapest of 2 twins we can price.
