The review

Chillin scores 5.9 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Cologne.

Scentual Obsessions lists 4 of the 9 notes in Cologne's pyramid — lemon, bergamot, white musk and cedar. What it does not list: orange, neroli, orange blossom and jasmine; and it adds elemi, pink pepper and vetiver of its own.

It is sold as a cologne, a lighter concentration than most originals.

At $133 per 100ml it costs 72% less than Cologne — the 12th cheapest of 14 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 Scentual Obsessions 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

Etat Libre d'Orange Cologne is lemon, bergamot and orange at first, neroli, orange blossom and jasmine at its heart and white musk, amber and cedar at the end. Scentual Obsessions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

A straight lemon-neroli cologne from the house of provocation, the joke being there is none.

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