The review
On paper, Forgiven is an outside bet if you want Pardon for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Pardon'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 13% less than Pardon — the 3rd 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
The original opens on nutmeg, turns to orris and dark chocolate, and settles into vetiver and woods. That is the brief Forgiven is working from.
Top
- nutmeg
Heart
- orris
- dark chocolate
Base
- vetiver
- woods
Bitter chocolate and earthy orris over dry vetiver — masculine without ever raising its voice.
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 4 twins of Nasomatto Pardon we can price, Forgiven is number 3 on price per 100ml.
