FragDNA score · on paper
The review
Strong contender. That is where Unknown Essence 2459 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to I Don't Know What.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is I Don't Know What'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 53% less than I Don't Know What — the cheapest of 1 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
What it is chasing: bergamot and pear up top, iris and violet in the middle, musk, amber and woods underneath — the shape of D.S. & Durga I Don't Know What.
Top
- bergamot
- pear
Heart
- iris
- violet
Base
- musk
- amber
- woods
Soft iris and blurred musk that reads less like perfume than like you, slightly improved.
