The review

On paper, Enigmatic Gem is a reasonable bet if you want Uncut Gem for less.

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

Evidence7.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand 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 cardamom and balsam fir, turns to incense, cypriol and opoponax, and settles into cedar and myrrh. That is the brief Enigmatic Gem is working from.

Top

  • cardamom
  • balsam fir

Heart

  • incense
  • cypriol
  • opoponax

Base

  • cedar
  • myrrh
Smoky cypriol and opoponax over resinous woods — raw, meditative and dark.
