The bottle worth trying

Similarity is the owners' vote plus the note overlap. Price is a typical US bottle price when the house publishes one. Bars are each match's own accords.

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Similarity figures come from owner ratings and published notes, never from a lab, and no bottle here is a copy of another. Brand names appear only to say what a scent is similar to.
