Best Parfums de Marly Althair Dupe
Athan captures the creamy iris-forward character and woody-amber base of Althaïr quite faithfully, with the top citrus notes translating well. The clone tends to be slightly softer in projection and the oud feels less prominent in the drydown compared to the original's more assertive woody-resinous finish.
Athan exhibits slightly reduced longevity (5-6 hours vs 8+ for the original) and a more muted sillage. The base notes lack some of the original's olfactory depth, with the sandalwood appearing more forward than the balanced composition of Althaïr.
