The review
Eastern Island scores 6.3 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Japon Noir.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Japon Noir'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 50% less than Japon Noir — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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
Tom Ford Japon Noir is aldehydes, bergamot and black pepper at first, osmanthus, incense and cardamom at its heart and woody notes, amber and benzoin at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- aldehydes
- bergamot
- black pepper
Heart
- osmanthus
- incense
- cardamom
Base
- woody notes
- amber
- benzoin
Aldehydes and osmanthus over incense and warm woods; refined, smoky and quietly opulent.
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 3 twins of Tom Ford Japon Noir we can price, Eastern Island is number 2 on price per 100ml.
- 01 Lattafa Fakhar $45/100ml
- 02 Perfume Parlour Eastern Island $159/100ml
- 03 Palermo Perfumes Japon Noir $22.75
