The review
On paper, R Bloom is a reasonable bet if you want Red Roses for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Red Roses's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.
At $83 per 100ml it costs 34% less than Red Roses — the 4th 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 lemon and mint, turns to rose and violet, and settles into honey and musk. That is the brief R Bloom is working from.
Top
- lemon
- mint
Heart
- rose
- violet
Base
- honey
- musk
Seven roses cut with lemon and mint, dewy and bright rather than heavy and velvet.
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 6 twins of Jo Malone London Red Roses we can price, R Bloom is number 4 on price per 100ml.
