The review

Spicy Java scores 6.3 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Golden Dallah.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Golden Dallah'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 $122 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Golden Dallah — the cheapest of 1 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

Xerjoff Golden Dallah is cardamom, bergamot and saffron at first, coffee, date and cinnamon at its heart and amber, vanilla and musk at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
