What Is DUA As I Wish a Dupe Of?

DUA As I Wish is a clone of Giorgio Armani My Way 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 kind of scent is it going for?

My Way is the reference for this one. Orange blossom, tuberose and jasmine give you a clear floral starting point, with citrus, vanilla, musk and cedar around them. We’d focus on the flowers when comparing samples. In particular, think about whether you want tuberose to be the main draw or prefer the brighter orange-blossom side of the profile.

How do the notes compare?

DUA As I Wish lists Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Bergamot, Indian Jasmine, Madagascan Vanilla, White Musk and Virginian Cedar Wood. Giorgio Armani My Way EDP lists Bergamot, Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Jasmine, Vanilla, White Musk and Cedarwood.

Both lists include Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Bergamot and White Musk, giving you a few clear points to follow in a sample. For DUA As I Wish, also look for Indian Jasmine, Madagascan Vanilla and Virginian Cedar Wood. The original’s list also includes Jasmine, Vanilla and Cedarwood.

What would we look for in a sample?

Try a similar amount of each on separate wrists and give them some time. Come back to both after the first burst has settled, then check them again later. We’d focus on the notes that made you interested in the pairing in the first place.
