What Is DUA Green Tonic a Dupe Of?

DUA Green Tonic is a clone of Thomas Kosmala Bukhoor. 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?

No. 9 Bukhoor by Thomas Kosmala is the reference. The listed ingredients are quite focused: woods, smoke, oud, amber and musk. We’d compare the smoky side against the warmer base rather than trying to turn this into a fresh citrus scent from its name. If that combination appeals, a sample is a useful first step.

How do the notes compare?

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.
