The review
Worth a try. That is where Tonkalicious lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Tonka Impériale.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Tonka Impériale's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
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: almond, bergamot and rosemary up top, Tonka Bean, honey and tobacco in the middle, Tonka Bean, vanilla and cedar underneath — the shape of Guerlain Tonka Impériale.
Top
- almond
- bergamot
- rosemary
Heart
- Tonka Bean
- honey
- tobacco
Base
- Tonka Bean
- vanilla
- cedar
Toasted almond and honeyed tobacco over tonka; a gourmand with the bearing of a classic.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
