What Is DUA An Olfactory Tale a Dupe Of?

DUA An Olfactory Tale is a clone of Tom Ford Rose de Chine EDP. That’s the original behind this pairing and the bottle to compare it with if you’re deciding which version of the scent to try.

What’s the connection?

Rose and Chinese peony lead the idea here, with myrrh and labdanum underneath. We’d look at the space between those two sides: how much of the floral character comes through, and how warm or resinous the finish feels. It’s a useful pair to sample if you enjoy roses with some depth around them.

How do the notes compare?

What would we look for in a sample?
