The 3 worth trying, ranked
Similarity is the owners' vote plus the note overlap. Price is a typical US bottle price when the house publishes one. Bars are each match's own accords.
Where it differs: Owners say it has the same sweet waxy florals but misses the lacquered spice, incense and cardamom that make Chinatown distinctive, and it adds rose and oud.
Where it differs: Shares the vanilla and patchouli warmth but swaps the tuberose, gardenia and cardamom for freesia, rose and caramel, so it is sweeter and much less spicy.
