What Is Dossier Fruity Violet a Dupe Of?

If you are wondering what Dossier Fruity Violet is a dupe of, the answer is Burberry Her Eau de Parfum. The connection is berries, violet and sweet woods, with a few details worth checking in a sample before you buy.

Why this pairing makes sense

Fruity Violet is paired with Burberry Her Eau de Parfum. Cassis and other fruit notes sit above violet, iris, jasmine and white woods in Dossier’s list. The reference also uses berries, jasmine and violet, while Dossier adds caramel and honey to its base notes.

How do their notes compare?

For Dossier Fruity Violet, useful notes to follow include Cassis, Peach, Strawberry, Pink Berries, Violet and Iris. Burberry Her Eau de Parfum lists Blackcurrant, Blueberry, Raspberry, Jasmine, Violet and White Woods 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?

We’d compare the berries with the sweeter base. If you are looking specifically for Her EDP, check the edition rather than using Her Elixir as the reference.

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. Dossier Fruity Violet gives you Dossier’s take on the idea; Burberry Her Eau de Parfum 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.
