What Is DUA Her Curve a Dupe Of?

DUA Her Curve is a clone of Liz Claiborne Curve for Women Eau de Toilette. The notes point toward bright fruit and a full floral bouquet. Here’s what connects them and what we’d check before buying.

What connects the two?

This is Curve for Women, with DUA pointing to its vintage style. Blackberry, peach and freesia help distinguish that reference from the separate men’s Curve fragrance.

How do their notes compare?

DUA Her Curve lists Lily-of-the-Valley, Mandarin Orange, Yellow Freesia, Ylang-Ylang, Damask Rose and Sandalwood among its notes. Liz Claiborne Curve for Women Eau de Toilette lists Blackberry, Grapefruit, Mandarin Orange, Peach, Bergamot and Orange among its own notes.

A shared note is a starting point, rather than a promise that both scents will develop the same way. The amount of sweetness, the texture of the woods and the way the notes blend can matter as much as the names on the list.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d follow the fruit into the flowers and check whether the woody finish feels too dry or just right.

Try the same number of sprays on separate wrists if you can. Compare them again after the opening settles, and check how noticeable each one feels at a normal wearing distance. Let your own skin and usual setting have a say.

Which bottle makes more sense?

We’d start with DUA Her Curve if you want to try this scent idea in DUA’s interpretation. Choose Liz Claiborne Curve for Women Eau de Toilette if that exact original is what you want. Before ordering, compare bottle sizes, the delivered price and the retailer’s return terms. A smaller bottle or sample can be the better first step when one particular note is the reason you are interested.
