The review
On paper, Fruit Sour is a reasonable bet if you want Orange Bitters for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Orange Bitters'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 34% less than Orange Bitters — the 4th cheapest of 4 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 bitter orange, bergamot and grapefruit, turns to clove and cinnamon, and settles into amber, cedar and musk. That is the brief Fruit Sour is working from.
Top
- bitter orange
- bergamot
- grapefruit
Heart
- clove
- cinnamon
Base
- amber
- cedar
- musk
Bitter orange peel twisted over spice, a negroni's aromatic half.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
