A long shot

The review
Venom scores 4.9 out of 10 on paper — a long shot territory for anyone chasing Poison.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Poison'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 $83 per 100ml it costs 14% less than Poison — the 7th cheapest of 8 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
Dior Poison is coriander, plum and anise at first, tuberose, carnation and honey at its heart and opoponax, vanilla and heliotrope at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- coriander
- plum
- anise
Heart
- tuberose
- carnation
- honey
Base
- opoponax
- vanilla
- heliotrope
Plum and tuberose in a dense, narcotic cloud, the definition of eighties excess.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
