What Is Paris Corner Ophidian Black Cherry a Dupe Of?

What is Ophidian Black Cherry a dupe of?

Paris Corner Ophidian Black Cherry is a clone of Kayali Lovefest Burning Cherry 48. Cherry, raspberry, praline and woods are the starting point for this comparison. If you like the idea of sweet fruit against a darker woody background, it's a pair worth looking at.

We're comparing it with Lovefest Burning Cherry Eau de Parfum. The matching Kayali body spray is a separate product, and this guide doesn't use Tom Ford Lost Cherry as the reference.

How do the notes line up?

The panels share raspberry and bergamot, followed by praline, heliotrope and rose, with patchouli and woody notes underneath. Kayali's profile also puts Burning Cherry at the top and names palo santo and guaiac wood at the base.

There's an important wrinkle with Ophidian's panel: it doesn't name cherry, but Paris Corner's current description does. The brand lists cherry, raspberry, bergamot and woods at the top; praline, heliotrope, rose and oud in the middle; then tonka, patchouli, vetiver and incense.

That's different from the expanded catalog profile shown here, which includes jasmine and a longer base list ending in pear. Kayali's current base description also differs slightly from its panel, which includes tonka. These lists vary in detail, so we'd focus on the fruit, sweetness and woods when comparing the fragrances.

Who would we suggest it to?

We'd shortlist Ophidian if Lovefest's cherry-and-wood combination is what caught your attention. Kayali describes its praline sweetness alongside smoky palo santo, guaiac wood and earthy patchouli. That gives you more to consider than whether a fragrance simply smells of cherries.

When sampling, notice how much fruit you want to keep as the woody notes develop. You might love a sweet opening but prefer a different balance once it settles. Trying each scent separately can help you work out which part of the profile you actually enjoy most.
