What Is DUA Crown Twilight a Dupe Of?

If you are wondering what DUA Crown Twilight is a dupe of, the answer is Escada Taj Sunset. The connection is mango, raspberry and tropical floral notes, with a few details worth checking in a sample before you buy.

Why this pairing makes sense

Crown Twilight follows Escada Taj Sunset. Mango, nectarine, blood orange, raspberry and star apple connect the fruit, with water lily, lotus, coconut, musk and sandalwood adding other markers. The balance between juicy fruit and the softer base is the useful comparison.

How do their notes compare?

For DUA Crown Twilight, useful notes to follow include Star apple, Blood Orange, Sandalwood, Water Lily, Nectarine and Raspberry. Escada Taj Sunset lists Mango, Nectarine, Blood Orange, Raspberry, Star apple and Water Lily among its own notes.

The lists give you specific things to look for, but they cannot tell you how strongly each note will come through. Two fragrances can share several notes and still put a different part of the scent first.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d compare the mango and nectarine with the coconut after the citrus settles. If you like tart fruit, check how much sweetness comes through for you.

A side-by-side sample is useful here. Give the opening time to settle, then return to both scents later rather than making the call from the first spray. We’d compare the parts you enjoy wearing most, including the quieter finish.

Which bottle makes more sense?

Think about which part of this pairing you want to wear most, then compare the actual bottles on offer. DUA Crown Twilight gives you DUA’s take on the idea; Escada Taj Sunset is the reference itself. We’d check bottle size, shipping and return terms before choosing. If you are unsure about the sweeter or woodier side, try a sample first.
