A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Intense Black lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Noir Extreme.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Noir Extreme'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 10% less than Noir Extreme — the 7th cheapest of 11 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.
