What Is DUA Destiny Pour Homme a Dupe Of?

DUA Destiny Pour Homme is a clone of Amouage Fate Man. 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?

Fate Man is the reference here. The two lists bring spices, incense, immortelle and licorice into the same conversation, with resins and woods behind them. We’d make room for the unusual notes in a sample comparison, especially the cumin and licorice. If you enjoy that idea, the way it balances with the incense is a useful thing to follow.

How do the notes compare?

DUA Destiny Pour Homme lists Cumin, Saffron, Wormwood, Ginger, Mandarin Orange, Incense, Immortelle and Copahu Balm. Amouage Fate Man lists Cumin, Saffron, Wormwood, Ginger, Mandarin Orange, Incense, Immortelle and Copahu Balm.

Both lists include Cumin, Saffron, Wormwood, Ginger and Mandarin Orange, giving you a few clear points to follow in a sample. For DUA Destiny Pour Homme, also look for Cedar Wood. The original’s list also includes Cedar.

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.
