A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Light Purple lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Violet Blonde.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Violet Blonde'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.

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.

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

What it is chasing: mandarin orange, pink pepper and baie rose up top, orris, jasmine and violet in the middle, suede, musk and benzoin underneath — the shape of Tom Ford Violet Blonde.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • pink pepper
  • baie rose

Heart

  • orris
  • jasmine
  • violet

Base

  • suede
  • musk
  • benzoin
Powdery orris and violet over soft suede and musk; elegant, retro and quietly sophisticated.

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