A long shot

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

A long shot. That is where Man on the Loose lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Libre.

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

At $133 per 100ml it costs 33% less than Libre — the 17th cheapest of 17 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

What it is chasing: lavender, mandarin orange and black currant up top, lavender, orange blossom and jasmine in the middle, madagascar vanilla, musk and cedar underneath — the shape of Yves Saint Laurent Libre.

Top

  • lavender
  • mandarin orange
  • black currant

Heart

  • lavender
  • orange blossom
  • jasmine

Base

  • madagascar vanilla
  • musk
  • cedar
For the one who refuses to be tamed, craving a bold lavender-and-vanilla contrast that feels cool, sophisticated and unmistakably, freely feminine.

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