The review

Worth a try. That is where French Power lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Dior Homme Intense.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Dior Homme Intense's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

At $83 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Dior Homme Intense — the 7th cheapest of 8 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: lavender up top, iris, ambrette and pear in the middle, virginia cedar and vetiver underneath — the shape of Dior Homme Intense.

Top

  • lavender

Heart

  • iris
  • ambrette
  • pear

Base

  • virginia cedar
  • vetiver
For the one who wears quiet power, this creamy iris and cocoa-touched amber signature turns boardrooms and candlelit dinners into effortless territory.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
