FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Silver Wood Esprit scores 7.2 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Bois d'Argent.

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

At $33 it costs 91% less than Bois d'Argent.

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

Dior Bois d'Argent is aldehydes, bergamot and honey at first, iris, lily of the valley and myrrh at its heart and incense, amber and leather at the end. The Dua Brand set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
