The review

Man Excess scores 5.9 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Masculin Pluriel.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Masculin Pluriel'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 40% less than Masculin Pluriel — the 2nd cheapest of 3 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

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Masculin Pluriel is lavender, artemisia and black pepper at first, vetiver and leather at its heart and cedar and white musk at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • lavender
  • artemisia
  • black pepper

Heart

Base

  • white musk
Aromatic lavender and vetiver over supple leather — a refined masculine staple.

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