A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Intrinsic II lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gaultier2.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gaultier2's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

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

It is $114 per 100ml.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: amber up top, musk and vanilla in the middle, amber, musk and vanilla underneath — the shape of Jean Paul Gaultier Gaultier2.

Top

  • amber

Heart

  • musk
  • vanilla

Base

  • amber
  • musk
  • vanilla
Pure amber-musk warmth with no top or heart, radical and remarkably comforting.

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