Why TWINS can cost less on Amazon
Amazon has 1 of these marked down right now: the Impression of Grand Soir No. 8823 Eau de Parfum is $25 instead of its list price of $27.99. The markdown is Amazon's own, on an offer from the brand's store, not a reseller undercutting it.
Fake TWINS vs real: what to check
- On Amazon the real thing comes from TWINS's own store (“TWINS PARFUM”). The seller is the line under Add to Cart, not the name on the listing.
- From TWINS's own store (“TWINS PARFUM”), the 6 TWINS products we track cost $24.99 to $25 today, 11% off at most. The FTC warns that ads with big discounts on brand names can lead to a cheap fake or nothing at all: its alert.
How to check who sells TWINS on Amazon
- Browsing from outside the US, set a US delivery address first; any ZIP will do, 10001 works. Without one Amazon fills the buy box with import and reseller offers. That is how Charlotte Tilbury, Dyson and Clinique once looked unstocked to us, when Amazon.com sold all three.
- Read the two lines beside Add to Cart, “Ships from” and “Sold by”. For TWINS you want TWINS's own store (“TWINS PARFUM”).
- If another name is there, open “Other sellers on Amazon”. Amazon.com or the brand sometimes sells the same listing one row down, at the same price or close to it.
What TWINS stands in for
TWINS Impression of Blue Talisman No. 8851 Eau de Parfum
for Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman Eau de Parfum
$24.99vs $385−94% per oz
TWINS names Blue Talisman in its listing title and lists Ex Nihilo's nine notes and no others: pear, bergamot, ginger and mandarin, then orange blossom and Georgywood, on Akigalawood, Ambrofix and musk.
What it does worse: TWINS publishes nothing beyond that list, so its listing can't say where the two part.
TWINS Impression of Grand Soir No. 8823 Eau de Parfum
for Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir Eau de Parfum
$25 $27.99vs $246.30−93% per oz
TWINS names Grand Soir in its listing title and lists base notes only: amber and vanilla with Siam benzoin and Spanish labdanum, Grand Soir's amber-vanilla accord and its labdanum, plus tonka bean.
What it does worse: Grand Soir's lavandin and cinnamon leaf aren't on the TWINS list.

for BYREDO Blanche Eau de Parfum
$24.99vs $330−92% per oz

What it does worse: TWINS adds pink pepper, African orange blossom and woody notes.
TWINS Impression of Bal d'Afrique No. 8748 Eau de Parfum
for BYREDO Bal d'Afrique Eau de Parfum
$24.99vs $330−92% per oz
