What Is ALT Fragrances Saxon Pear a Dupe Of?

ALT Fragrances Saxon Pear is a clone of Jo Malone London English Pear & Freesia. That is the original behind this pairing, with pear, freesia, rose and soft woods as the starting point for a comparison.

Why this pairing makes sense

Pear and freesia are the obvious anchors, but ALT also lists melon, rose, musk, amber, patchouli and rhubarb. That gives you a few extra details to check beside the reference’s shorter profile. We would compare how the fruit and flowers fit around the warmer materials.

How do their notes compare?

ALT lists a top, middle and base structure for this scent. Its listed notes include Pear, Melon, Rose, Freesia, Musk, Amber and Patchouli. That gives you a few specific notes to look for in a sample.

Jo Malone London English Pear & Freesia lists Williams Pear, Freesia and Patchouli 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 pear against freesia and rose, then revisit the musk and patchouli. We would compare the fruit beyond the first spray before deciding which bottle you prefer.

Which one should you choose?

We’d start with ALT Fragrances Saxon Pear if you want to explore pear, freesia, rose and soft woods in ALT’s interpretation. Choose the original if having that specific reference is the priority. Before ordering either one, compare bottle sizes, the current delivered cost and the retailer’s return policy. A sample is especially useful if one particular note is the reason you are interested.
