The review

Worth a try. That is where Legendary Founder lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Perseus.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Perseus'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

What it is chasing: basil, mint and artemisia up top, geranium and rosemary in the middle, patchouli, musk and cedar underneath — the shape of Parfums de Marly Perseus.

  • mint
  • artemisia

Heart

  • geranium
