The review

On paper, Fortune is a reasonable bet if you want Naxos for less.

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

At $126 per 100ml it costs 56% less than Naxos — the 18th cheapest of 19 twins we can price.

Value6.2
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 bergamot, lavender and lemon, turns to honey, cinnamon and jasmine, and settles into tobacco, tonka and vanilla. That is the brief Fortune is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • lavender
  • lemon

Heart

  • honey
  • cinnamon
  • jasmine

Base

  • tobacco
  • tonka
  • vanilla
For nights that deserve gold. Lavender and citrus dissolve into honeyed tobacco, tonka and vanilla — a warm, opulent fougère you can almost taste.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 24 twins of Xerjoff Naxos we can price, Fortune is number 18 on price per 100ml.
