A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Florence Stick lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gucci Bamboo.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gucci Bamboo'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 $83 per 100ml it costs 1% less than Gucci Bamboo — the 2nd cheapest of 3 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

What it is chasing: bergamot up top, casablanca lily, ylang-ylang and orange blossom in the middle, sandalwood, tahitian vanilla and amber underneath — the shape of Gucci Bamboo.

Top

  • bergamot

Heart

  • casablanca lily
  • ylang-ylang
  • orange blossom

Base

  • sandalwood
  • tahitian vanilla
  • amber
Casablanca lily softened by vanilla and sandalwood; a polished, undemanding everyday floral.

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 5 twins of Gucci Bamboo we can price, Florence Stick is number 3 on price per 100ml.
