The review

On paper, Obsidian is a reasonable bet if you want Dior Homme Intense for less.

Rayhaan sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Dior Homme Intense's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $40 it costs 76% less than Dior Homme Intense.

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 Rayhaan 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 lavender, turns to iris, ambrette and pear, and settles into virginia cedar and vetiver. That is the brief Obsidian is working from.

Top

  • lavender

Heart

  • iris
  • ambrette
  • pear

Base

  • virginia cedar
  • vetiver
For the one who wears quiet power, this creamy iris and cocoa-touched amber signature turns boardrooms and candlelit dinners into effortless territory.

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