The review

On paper, Pierced Design is a reasonable bet if you want Beau de Jour for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Beau de Jour'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 $122 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Beau de Jour — the 3rd cheapest of 5 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

The original opens on lavender, peppermint and rosemary, turns to geranium, moss and oakwood, and settles into amber and patchouli. That is the brief Pierced Design is working from.

Top

  • lavender
  • peppermint
  • rosemary

Heart

  • geranium
  • moss
  • oakwood

Base

  • amber
  • patchouli
A crisp lavender-and-herb fougère with mossy elegance; clean, masculine and effortlessly sophisticated.

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 5 twins of Tom Ford Beau de Jour we can price, Pierced Design is number 3 on price per 100ml.

  1. 01 Perfume Parlour Pierced $41/100ml
  2. 02 AromaPassions Splendid $69/100ml
  3. 03 Perfume Parlour Pierced Design $122/100ml
