Phantom Alternative: Meet No107, Our Futuristic Woody-Aromatic Eau de Parfum

Every so often a fragrance launch genuinely shifts what people expect from a modern men's scent, and the fragrance that inspired No107 is a recent example, a futuristic, smoky-fresh composition that quickly built a devoted following. A full bottle of the designer original typically costs between 80 and 120 pounds.

No107 was built to bring that same energised, modern character within easy reach. Here is an honest look at both.

What Makes the Original Feel So Modern

The fragrance that inspired No107 opens with a bright, clean burst of zesty lemon zest, Amalfi lemon and creamy lavender. It evolves into a bold heart of smoky, earthy lavender layered over crisp apple and patchouli, before grounding itself in a warm, addictive base of soft vanilla, lavender and vetiver. That smoky-lavender heart is unusual and distinctive, giving the fragrance a genuinely futuristic character rather than following a familiar fresh-citrus template.

Meet No107

No107 is our Eau de Parfum built around that same structure: a bright citrus-lavender opening, a smoky apple-patchouli heart, and a warm vanilla-vetiver base. It is designed to capture that same energised, confident, modern essence, our own formulation inspired by one of the more distinctive recent designer launches.

It is priced at 14.99 pounds for 50ml and 24.99 pounds for 100ml.

Why Concentration Matters Here

The smoky lavender heart that gives this fragrance its identity is delicate, and a weak formulation loses it quickly, collapsing back into generic fresh citrus. No107 is loaded at the maximum fragrance inclusion level the oil will hold, specifically to keep that smoky, layered heart present through the full development of the scent.

Being Honest About the Comparison

No107 is built to capture the mood and character of a genuinely distinctive recent fragrance, it is not an identical reproduction of a protected designer formula. What we can promise is a genuinely well-made Eau de Parfum at maximum concentration, backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Who Should Wear No107?

This suits anyone who wants a modern, slightly unconventional signature scent that stands apart from typical fresh or woody fragrances. It works well for everyday wear and evenings alike. If you prefer something more classically fresh, browse our aftershave collection.

Tips for Wearing It Well

  • Two to three sprays at maximum concentration gives the full citrus-to-smoky-to-vanilla development.
  • Let it settle for twenty minutes before judging it, the bright citrus opening is not representative of how it wears overall.
  • Works well year-round thanks to its balance of fresh and warm elements.
  • Apply to pulse points for the best development and longevity.

The Bottom Line

The fragrance that inspired No107 earned its following through a genuinely distinctive, modern composition. No107 brings that same character within easy reach, made by hand in Glossop, formulated at maximum concentration, and priced for everyday wear.
