Ajmal Dupe vs. TOM FORD Noir Anthracite
Because of the promising reviews, I snagged a sample of TFNA and its Arabic reincarnation called AJMAL Verde.
While TFNA can dish out uncompromising pepper spray in the opening, his oriental half-brother is still gracious - fresh on the go and giving away bergamots. However, this is only minimal and is more or less reversed in the heart note: TFNA has a balance of galbanum and flowers, with tubErose in particular creating an interesting mix. AJMAL, on the other hand, transforms itself into a moss man and hangs gold chains around its neck. That's not bad, but rather old-school barbershop with a pleasing drydown.
And the DNA is something like that. I can't find a menacing T-800 here, rather I have the impression of watching freshly shaved moustache wearers with mullets next to me on a Saturday morning in the shooting club. MDR Sachsen is playing in the background and I know that after lunch there will be a walk through the greenery of the Pitralon cedar forest with the family. I like.
Anyone who is familiar with Boucheron Homme will be well served here, especially as the DD remains beautifully woody and doesn't drift into mustiness.
