The review

Strong contender. That is where Gaultier 2 #229 lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gaultier2.

The Dupe Spot sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gaultier2's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

It is sold as a perfume oil — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $36 per 100ml it costs 62% less than Gaultier2 — the cheapest of 2 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
