Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

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

Zoha Aroma sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Original Santal's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $108 per 100ml it costs 86% less than Original Santal — 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.
