What Is DUA Cuìr de Irlandés a Dupe Of?

DUA Cuìr de Irlandés is a clone of Memo Paris Irish Leather 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.

Why compare these two?

Juniper, clary sage and maté bring a green, aromatic side to this leather comparison. DUA also lists birch tar, iris and tonka bean. We’d follow how those details sit around the leather, and check whether the aromatic side is as noticeable as you’d like it to be.

What would we look for in a sample?

A sample gives you room to find out which balance you enjoy. We’d try both with a similar amount, let the opening settle and come back later in the day. Pay attention to the part you most want to wear, whether that’s the first freshness or the warmer finish.
