The review

Golden Sin scores 5.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Pardon.

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

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

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

Nasomatto Pardon is nutmeg at first, orris and dark chocolate at its heart and vetiver and woods at the end. Scentual Obsessions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • nutmeg

Heart

  • orris
  • dark chocolate

Base

  • vetiver
  • woods
Bitter chocolate and earthy orris over dry vetiver — masculine without ever raising its voice.

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