Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where French Silver lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Bois d'Argent.

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

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

At $89 per 100ml it costs 75% less than Bois d'Argent — the cheapest of 3 twins we can price.
