The review
Tertiary Complete scores 7.3 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Amber Absolute.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Amber Absolute'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 75% less than Amber Absolute — the 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.
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
Tom Ford Amber Absolute is incense, labdanum and bergamot at first, amber, benzoin and vanilla at its heart and woody notes, frankincense and balsam at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- incense
- labdanum
- bergamot
Heart
- amber
- benzoin
- vanilla
Base
- woody notes
- frankincense
- balsam
A thick, glowing amber steeped in incense and resins; warm, smoky and gloriously heavy.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
