The review

On paper, Superman is a reasonable bet if you want Ultra Male for less.

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

At $117 per 100ml it costs 59% less than Ultra Male — the 12th cheapest of 12 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.

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

The original opens on pear, lavender and mint, turns to cinnamon, clary sage and black lavender, and settles into vanilla, Tonka Bean and amber. That is the brief Superman is working from.

Top

  • pear
  • lavender
  • mint

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • clary sage
  • black lavender

Base

  • vanilla
  • Tonka Bean
  • amber
Sugary pear and lavender over vanilla, absurdly strong and unapologetically fun.

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

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 15 twins of Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male we can price, Superman is number 12 on price per 100ml.
