The review
Worth a try. That is where Silky Seed lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Velvet Tonka.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Velvet Tonka'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 38% less than Velvet Tonka — the 3rd cheapest of 3 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.

Cinnamon-dusted tonka and tobacco over vanilla, plush, boozy-warm and built for December.
