The review

On paper, Venezuela II is an outside bet if you want CH Men for less.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is CH Men's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Strength: extrait, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

It is $89 per 100ml.

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

The original opens on bergamot, grapefruit and nutmeg, turns to leather, jasmine and cedar, and settles into leather, sandalwood and sugar. That is the brief Venezuela II is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • grapefruit
  • nutmeg

Heart

  • leather
  • jasmine
  • cedar

Base

  • leather
  • sandalwood
  • sugar
Saffron and nutmeg over sweet leather, refined and pleasingly old-world.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
