The review

On paper, Regal Mayfair Essence 2305 is a strong bet if you want Royal Mayfair for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Royal Mayfair'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 $159 per 100ml it costs 73% less than Royal Mayfair — the 4th cheapest of 5 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 eucalyptus, lime and orange, turns to gin and juniper berries, and settles into cedar, sandalwood and vetiver. That is the brief Regal Mayfair Essence 2305 is working from.

Top

  • eucalyptus
  • lime
  • orange

Heart

  • gin
  • juniper berries

Base

  • cedar
  • sandalwood
  • vetiver
Crisp gin, lime and eucalyptus over dry cedar, sharp and gentlemanly.
