FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where PERFUME OIL #164 our duplication of VIOLET BLOND lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Violet Blonde.

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

Strength: perfume oil, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

At $26 it costs 76% less than Violet Blonde.

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