The review

On paper, Error 419 is a reasonable bet if you want 1 Million Elixir for less.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is 1 Million Elixir's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $33 it costs 70% less than 1 Million Elixir.

Value7.8
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 grapefruit, turns to cinnamon, nutmeg and sandalwood, and settles into sandalwood, amber and patchouli. That is the brief Error 419 is working from.

Top

  • cardamom
  • grapefruit

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • nutmeg
  • sandalwood

Base

  • sandalwood
  • amber
  • patchouli
Cardamom and cinnamon over sandalwood amber, the deepest 1 Million yet.
