Best Designer Perfume Dupes Of All Time
1. YSL Black Opium Dupe = Marks Spencer Midnight Blossom
I sprayed these side by side and wow, the resemblance is instant. Both open with warm vanilla and rich coffee, with jasmine giving it that sexy floral heart. Midnight Blossom nails that dark sweetness Black Opium is known for. If you’re into bold, sugary scents with a mysterious edge, you’ll love this dupe.
2. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle → Next Nude Bouquet
Next’s Nude Bouquet is the best dupe of Chanel’s popular perfume because the notes are extremely similar. I’m literally on my 3rd bottle. With bright citrus, rose, and a musky patchouli base, it feels just like Coco Mademoiselle.
3. YSL Libre → Zara Golden Decade
I’m still in shock at how close this one is. Both have lavender, orange blossom and a warm vanilla base. Golden Decade feels just as bold and sophisticated as Libre. I wore it to dinner and was asked twice if I was wearing YSL.
4. Baccarat Rouge 540 → Zara Red Temptation
Red Temptation has that same saffron, amber, and woody magic. I’ve worn both on different wrists all day and could barely tell them apart. It has the airy sweetness and subtle richness that makes BR540 so addictive.
5. Daisy Marc Jacobs → Marks Spencer Gardenia Vanilla
If you like Daisy’s soft florals and youthful freshness, Gardenia Vanilla hits the mark. It opens with green gardenia and soft petals, then melts into a sweet vanilla base—light, pretty and easy to wear every day.
6. Delina → Zara Fashionably London + Zara’s Rose Gourmand
I swear these is the best dupe for Delina. You get the tart rhubarb and lychee at the top, then the soft Turkish rose and musk dry-down. Zara absolutely nailed it, these two are the closest Delina Parfums By Marly dupe you will find. I wore both and genuinely forgot which wrist was which!
7. Bright Crystal → Dossier Fruity Magnolia
Bright Crystal is all about fresh pomegranate, yuzu, and peony. Bright Petals gives you the same juicy-floral brightness. I sprayed both in-store and kept catching the same fresh breeze scent throughout the day.
8. Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 → Zara Emotions Collection No. 07 Clear
When I smell Molecule 01, it’s woody, clean, skin-like. Zara’s Clear version gives that same Iso E Super aura. It smells like fresh air on warm skin and it’s perfect if you love low-key minimalist perfumes.
9. Glossier You → Dossier Musky Musk
Glossier You has that cozy musk and creamy ambrette scent. Dossier’s version blends the same soft musks with a hint of powder and wood. I layered them together, and they were practically twins
10. PHLUR Missing Person → Oil Perfumery Missing Person
PHLUR’s scent is that barely-there soft skin scent. Oil Perfumery’s dupe captures the same floral musk, bergamot and sandalwood base. It’s delicate and nostalgic, just like the original.
11. Sol De Janeiro Cheirosa 62 → Layered Brazilian Crush
This one smells like caramelized pistachio heaven. Layered’s version is creamy, warm, and identical to the Sol de Janeiro scent. I used it on my hair and body and it felt like summer in a bottle.
12. Black Orchid → Oil Perfumery Black Orchid
That dark truffle, orchid and patchouli combination? It’s all here. Oil Perfumery’s roll-on captures the opulence and spice of Tom Ford’s Black Orchid perfectly. I wore it on a night out and it lasted for hours.
13. Dior Blooming Bouquet → Zara Nude Bouquet
Miss Dior is all about fresh rose, citrus and soft woods. Zara Nude Bouquet has that same sparkling bergamot opening and a tender rose heart that dries down into a clean musk. I sprayed both on my wrist asked my friends to tell which is the dupe. They couldn’t tell the difference!
14. La Vie Est Belle → La Rive Queen of Life
La Vie Est Belle is sweet praline and iris magic. Queen of Life captures that creamy sweetness and adds its own soft floral twist. Honestly, you’d think it was the same perfume unless you looked at the label.
15. Le Labo Santal 33 → Maison Alhambra Woody Oud
Santal 33 is smoky sandalwood and cardamom perfection. Woody Oud gives the same dry, spicy-wood richness that lasts all day. I wore both and was amazed by how similar they smelled.
16. Dolce Gabbana Light Blue → Dossier Citrus Marine
Both open with bright lemon, crisp apple, and a breezy cedarwood base. Dossier’s version is such a mood-booster. It’s like a summer holiday in a bottle. Super wearable and light.
17. Wood Sage Sea Salt → Marks Spencer Fresh Elements Sea
Jo Malone’s original is salty, airy and herbal. M&S’s Sea opens the same way: clean, breezy, with just enough earthy sage to balance it. Perfect for spring and summer days.
18. Acqua di Gio → Milton Lloyd Summer Breezera Emotions Clear
This is truly an ultimate dupe of Acqua di Gio. The same marine citrus with hints of jasmine and musk. I tested both and they felt identical, especially in the opening. Such a clean, timeless scent.
19. Byredo Gypsy Water → Zara Fields at Nightfall
This one gives the same creamy sandalwood, vanilla, and fresh pine mix that Gypsy Water is known for. It’s smooth, gentle, and lasts longer than I expected for a Zara fragrance.
20. Calvin Klein Euphoria → Milton Lloyd Night Flower
Euphoria is rich, fruity and floral with a dark twist. Night Flower hits the same notes: pomegranate, orchid, and woods. It feels sensual and mysterious, just like the CK original.
21. Chance Eau Tendre → Zara Applejuice
This is one of my favourite finds. Applejuice captures the juicy grapefruit and floral notes of Chance Eau Tendre so well. It’s bright, delicate and one of those easy “everyday pretty” scents.
22. Ariana Grande Cloud → Dossier Ambery Saffron
This one gets compared to Baccarat Rouge too, but it’s also a dupe for Cloud. That mix of lavender, whipped cream and coconut is smooth, dreamy and long-lasting. So good for layering.
23. Dior J’adore → Dossier’s Fruity Jasmine
Honestly? This is one of the most shocking dupes. Dossier Fruity Jasmine smells nearly identical to Dior’s J’adore’s floral-fruity glow. You get that same ylang ylang-jasmine richness at an unbelievable price.
24. Creed Aventus → Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man
This is THE dupe for Aventus. Fresh pineapple, birch smoke and musky base, it’s all there. I gave a friend a blind sniff test, and they guessed the wrong one. It lasts forever too.
This is the ultimate lineup of the best perfume dupes I’ve tested. You’ll get all the luxury vibes without the price tag, and honestly, some of these last even longer than the originals.
