The review

Fern scores 5.6 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Bracken Man.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bracken Man'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 $159 per 100ml it costs 31% less than Bracken Man — 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

Amouage Bracken Man is lavender, galbanum and geranium at first, oakmoss and patchouli at its heart and leather, vetiver and cedar at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Ferny galbanum and lavender over mossy leather — a refined walk through damp forest.

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 Amouage Bracken Man we can price, Fern is number 2 on price per 100ml.
