The review

The Southern Cross II scores 5.4 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Cruz del Sur II.

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

Xerjoff Cruz del Sur II is orange, bergamot and nutmeg at first, chocolate, praline and iris at its heart and vanilla, sandalwood and amber at the end. The Dua Brand set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
