What Is DUA Costarindo a Dupe Of?

DUA Costarindo is a clone of Memo Paris Tamarindo. That is the original behind this pairing, with pineapple, flowers, patchouli and vanilla as the starting point for a comparison.

Why this pairing makes sense

Pineapple is a useful anchor here, with citrus and cardamom around it and patchouli, vanilla and benzoin underneath. The reference profile gives more detail about the floral and tropical side. We would compare those extra impressions if coconut or white flowers are what you enjoy most in Tamarindo.

How do their notes compare?

DUA gives this scent a single note list. Its listed notes include Vanilla Absolute, Pineapple, Patchouli, Bergamot, Cardamom, Benzoin and Jasmine. That gives you a few specific notes to look for in a sample.

Memo Paris Tamarindo lists Bergamot, Mandarin Orange, Cardamom, Orange, Pineapple, Jasmine and Coconut among its notes. You can see the complete profiles above, with each scent’s own labels and structure. A note list describes the idea; it does not tell you the proportions or guarantee that two fragrances develop the same way.

What would we compare on skin?

Check the pineapple beside the florals, then compare the patchouli and vanilla. We would also look for the coconut impression rather than assume it from the broader tropical idea.

Which one should you choose?

We’d start with DUA Costarindo if you want to explore pineapple, flowers, patchouli and vanilla in DUA’s interpretation. Choose the original if having that specific reference is the priority. Before ordering either one, compare bottle sizes, the current delivered cost and the retailer’s return policy. A sample is especially useful if one particular note is the reason you are interested.
