The review

On paper, Pulse 1283 is a strong bet if you want Where My Heart Beats for less.

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

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

At $114 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Where My Heart Beats — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.

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 marine notes, turns to cypress and cedar, and settles into musk, amber and woody notes. That is the brief Pulse 1283 is working from.

Base

  • woody notes
Sea spray drifting over dry cypress; airy, cool and one of the line's easiest wears.
