What Is DUA City Of Roses 26 a Dupe Of?

The fragrance behind DUA City Of Roses 26 is Pierre Guillaume Paris Isparta 26. It is a clone pairing built around rose, berries and resinous patchouli. We’d start with that idea, then look at how each scent puts its own notes together.

The idea behind the comparison

Isparta 26 is the reference. Red berries and Isparta rose give us the floral-fruity connection, with patchouli, calamus and benzoin offering other details worth checking.

How do their notes compare?

The named notes for DUA City Of Roses 26 include Red Berries, Isparta Rose, Patchouli, Calamus, Benzoin and Ambroxan. Pierre Guillaume Paris Isparta 26 lists Rose, Red Berries, Patchouli, Peru Balsam, Calamus and Agarwood (Oud) among its own notes.

Use those notes as a guide when trying the pair. What matters is how they fit together: a brighter opening, a softer floral middle or a drier base can change the whole impression even when some of the ingredients sound familiar.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d compare how much sweetness surrounds the rose and how prominent the patchouli becomes.

If you can get samples of both, use a similar amount and give each one time on skin. Come back to the comparison later in the day, especially if the opening and the base appeal to you for different reasons.

Which bottle makes more sense?

The choice comes down to how much you enjoy this balance on skin and which bottle fits your budget. We’d compare the current offers for DUA City Of Roses 26 and Pierre Guillaume Paris Isparta 26, including the bottle size and delivery cost. Give a sample enough time before committing, especially if the opening is your favorite part but you are less sure about the finish.
