The review
Eminent Leaf scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Montabaco.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Montabaco'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 $89 per 100ml it costs 64% less than Montabaco — 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
Ormonde Jayne Montabaco is bergamot, pink pepper and violet leaf at first, tobacco leaf, magnolia and jasmine at its heart and cedar, sandalwood and amber at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- bergamot
- pink pepper

Heart

Base

- amber
Tobacco leaf and suede over cedar and moss, dry, refined and effortlessly grown-up.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
