The review

Khus XLVI scores 5.7 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Vetiver 46.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Vetiver 46's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $114 per 100ml it costs 35% less than Vetiver 46 — the 2nd cheapest of 2 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

Le Labo Vetiver 46 is pepper and clove at first, vetiver, incense and cedarwood at its heart and labdanum, gaiac wood and amber at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • pepper
  • clove

Heart

  • vetiver
  • incense
  • cedarwood

Base

  • labdanum
  • gaiac wood
  • amber
Peppery vetiver smoked over incense and gaiac, austere, masculine and completely unfussy.

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

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 2 twins of Le Labo Vetiver 46 we can price, Khus XLVI is number 2 on price per 100ml.
