The review

Worth a try. That is where Dua's Charming Man lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Bvlgari Pour Homme.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Bvlgari Pour Homme's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 it costs 49% less than Bvlgari Pour Homme.
