Our verdict: does Ambery Cedarwood really dupe Alien?

Dossier names Alien, and Ambery Cedarwood reproduces its jasmine-amber-and-woody signature, the radiant, warm, unmistakable profile the purple stone is known for. The cashmeran and white-woods facets are reinterpreted, so the base reads a little different, but the luminous jasmine-amber heart is right. A faithful take on a bold icon.
