The review
On paper, Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot is a strong bet if you want Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot for less.
The Essence Vault sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $32 per 100ml it costs 79% less than Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot — the cheapest of 3 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.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Essence Vault 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
The original opens on cardamom and nutmeg, turns to apricot, sandalwood and mate, and settles into vanilla, labdanum and patchouli. That is the brief Sandalwood & Spiced Apricot is working from.
Top
- cardamom
- nutmeg
Heart
- apricot
- sandalwood
- mate
Base
- vanilla
- labdanum
- patchouli
Warm apricot and cardamom folded into creamy sandalwood, a festive drink in wood form.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
