What Is ALT Fragrances Falcon a Dupe Of?

If you are wondering what ALT Fragrances Falcon is a dupe of, the answer is Parfums de Marly Althaïr. This is a clone pairing built around the idea of Bourbon vanilla, warm spices and praline. Here are the notes worth comparing before you choose a bottle.

The idea behind the comparison

Vanilla is the anchor, with cinnamon, cardamom, bergamot and orange blossom giving you more to compare. Praline, guaiac wood and musky amber notes add another side. We would pay attention to how the spice and floral notes sit around vanilla rather than judge sweetness on its own.

How do their notes compare?

ALT lists a top, middle and base structure for this scent. Its listed notes include Guatemalan Cardamom, Ceylon Cinnamon, Orange Blossom, Bergamot, Bourbon Vanilla, elemi and Guaiac Wood. That gives you a few specific notes to look for in a sample.

Parfums de Marly Althaïr lists Bergamot, Mandarin, Elemi, Orange Blossom, Cinnamon, Cardamom and Bourbon Vanilla among its notes. You can see the complete profiles above, with each scent’s own labels and structure. A note list describes the idea; it does not tell you the proportions or guarantee that two fragrances develop the same way.

What would we compare on skin?

Check cinnamon and cardamom against the vanilla, then compare praline and the woods. We would see which part of that warmer balance you enjoy most.

Which one should you choose?

If Bourbon vanilla, warm spices and praline is the idea you want to explore, this pairing is a useful place to start. We’d choose between them after checking the actual bottle size, current offer and return terms, rather than assuming one is automatically the better deal. Try the same number of sprays on separate wrists if you can, and compare them again after the opening has settled.
