Why R Squared
Close to the original. Better where it counts.
In statistics, R squared measures how closely one thing matches another. That's the job: get close to the fragrance you love, then push it further.
Why it costs less
You pay for the perfume, not the name on the bottle
Niche and high-end designer houses charge for the logo, the flagship store and the campaign. We skip all of it and put the money into what's inside the bottle. Niche character, without the niche price.
Why it lasts longer
Extrait strength, every time
Many designer bottles are eau de parfum, around 15 to 20% fragrance oil. Every one of ours is extrait de parfum at 30% or more, built for the projection, longevity and sillage you'd expect from the original.
Where to start
His, Hers, Ours, and two Originals
Three lines to start from: smoke, leather and spice; rose, fruit and vanilla; amber, wood and marine. Plus Helix and 24/7, two house blends that are ours alone, with no original to compare them to.
To be clear
What we are
An independent perfumery making inspired-by interpretations of niche and high-end designer fragrances, plus two of our own. Where we name another fragrance, it's only to describe the direction an interpretation started from.
What we are not
We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with any brand named on this site. All trademarks belong to their owners.
