Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Great Evening lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Grand Soir.

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

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

At $122 per 100ml it costs 69% less than Grand Soir — the 8th cheapest of 11 twins we can price.
