The review
On paper, Impulse is a reasonable bet if you want Eros for less.
True Scents sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Eros's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $36 it costs 70% less than Eros.
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 True Scents 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 mint, green apple and lemon, turns to Tonka Bean, geranium and Ambroxan, and settles into vanilla, vetiver and cedar. That is the brief Impulse is working from.
Top
- mint
- green apple
- lemon
Heart
- Tonka Bean
- geranium
- Ambroxan
Base
- vanilla
- vetiver
- cedar
For the young and the bold. Icy mint and green apple flash over tonka and vanilla — loud, magnetic, unapologetically fun.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
