What Is ALT Fragrances Spirits a Dupe Of?

If you are wondering what ALT Fragrances Spirits is a dupe of, the answer is Louis Vuitton eLVes. The connection is citrus, floral and musky accords, with a few details worth checking in a sample before you buy.

Why this pairing makes sense

Spirits is sold as a clone of Louis Vuitton eLVes. ALT describes citrus, florals, woods, resins and musks in broad terms. The reference profile is more specific about peach, blackcurrant, roses, coconut milk and patchouli, so we’d look for those details in a sample.

How do their notes compare?

For ALT Fragrances Spirits, useful notes to follow include Citrus Notes, Floral Notes, Woody Notes, Resinous Notes and Musks. Louis Vuitton eLVes lists Peach, Black Currant, Ginger, Cinnamon, Bulgarian Rose and Rose among its own notes.

The lists give you specific things to look for, but they cannot tell you how strongly each note will come through. Two fragrances can share several notes and still put a different part of the scent first.

What would we look for in a sample?

Compare the actual fruity floral impression before ordering for the eLVes connection. The broader clone description leaves the strength of individual notes open to trying it yourself.

A side-by-side sample is useful here. Give the opening time to settle, then return to both scents later rather than making the call from the first spray. We’d compare the parts you enjoy wearing most, including the quieter finish.

Which bottle makes more sense?

Think about which part of this pairing you want to wear most, then compare the actual bottles on offer. ALT Fragrances Spirits gives you ALT’s take on the idea; Louis Vuitton eLVes is the reference itself. We’d check bottle size, shipping and return terms before choosing. If you are unsure about the sweeter or woodier side, try a sample first.
