Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Myrrh & Tonka lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Myrrh & Tonka.

The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Myrrh & Tonka's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $32 per 100ml it costs 85% less than Myrrh & Tonka — the cheapest of 11 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.
