What Is DUA Frozen Guava a Dupe Of?

DUA Frozen Guava is a clone of House of Brandt Guava Sorbet. That is the original behind this pairing, with guava, passionfruit and sweet citrus as the starting point for a comparison.

Why this pairing makes sense

Guava and passionfruit give this pairing its tropical direction, with citrus, sugar and vanilla surrounding them. Osmanthus and jasmine are also named in both profiles. Those floral details are useful to keep in mind if you want a fruit scent with more going on than a sugary opening.

How do their notes compare?

DUA lists a top, middle and base structure for this scent. Its listed notes include Mandarin Orange, Grapefruit, Bergamot, Guava, Passionfruit, Osmanthus and Jasmine. That gives you a few specific notes to look for in a sample.

House of Brandt Guava Sorbet lists Guava, Passionfruit, Grapefruit, Mandarin, Bergamot, Sugar and Osmanthus 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 balance between guava, passionfruit and citrus before following the sugar and vanilla. Does the fruit stay distinct, or does the sweetness become the main thing you notice?
