Worth a try

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Worth a try. That is where Running Water lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gypsy Water.

Scentual Obsessions sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gypsy Water'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

What it is chasing: juniper, lemon and bergamot up top, pine needles, orris and incense in the middle, amber, vanilla and sandalwood underneath — the shape of Byredo Gypsy Water.

Top

  • juniper
  • lemon
  • bergamot

Heart

  • pine needles
  • orris
  • incense

Base

  • amber
  • vanilla
  • sandalwood
For the wanderer at dusk. Fresh pine and juniper settle into incense, amber and vanilla — clean woods with a cozy heart.

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