The review
Strong contender. That is where Dutch City lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to New Haarlem.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is New Haarlem's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $83 per 100ml it costs 78% less than New Haarlem — the 2nd cheapest of 4 twins we can price.
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.
