The review

On paper, The Scandalous is a reasonable bet if you want Scandal Pour Homme for less.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Scandal Pour Homme'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 mandarin orange and clary sage, turns to caramel and Tonka Bean, and settles into vetiver. That is the brief The Scandalous is working from.

Top

  • mandarin orange
  • clary sage

Heart

  • caramel
  • Tonka Bean

Base

  • vetiver
For the one who craves caramel and tonka warmth wrapped around bright mandarin, a sweet-woody signature that projects confidence without trying too hard.
