The review

On paper, Realistic is a reasonable bet if you want Miss Dior Chérie for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Miss Dior Chérie'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 17% less than Miss Dior Chérie — the 3rd cheapest of 4 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 strawberry, caramelised popcorn and green tangerine, turns to jasmine, violet and strawberry leaf, and settles into patchouli, musk and popcorn. That is the brief Realistic is working from.

Top

  • strawberry
  • caramelised popcorn
  • green tangerine

Heart

  • jasmine
  • violet
  • strawberry leaf

Base

  • patchouli
  • musk
  • popcorn
Caramel popcorn and strawberry over patchouli, playful and unmistakably mid-2000s.

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

How it ranks against the other twins
