Amouage Interlude vs Ajmal Amber Santal

Ajmal Amber Santal has most of Amouage Interlude's accords, but not at the same strength, so it reads as a near match rather than a copy.

They share 6 of Amouage Interlude's 7 main accords: amber, balsamic, fresh spicy and smoky.

Ajmal Amber Santal costs about 29% of the price, around €90 against €308.

Ajmal Amber Santal fades sooner and sits closer to the skin.

What you give up: oregano, bergamot and opoponax, which Ajmal Amber Santal does not list.
