What Is DUA Luxurious For Him a Dupe Of?

The fragrance behind DUA Luxurious For Him is Clive Christian L for Men. It is a clone pairing built around grapefruit, rose and woody resins. We’d start with that idea, then look at how each scent puts its own notes together.

The idea behind the comparison

Luxurious for Him follows Clive Christian L for Men. Grapefruit, rose, oud, balsam fir, vetiver, cedar and musk connect the profiles, with petitgrain also listed for the reference. The citrus and resinous woods make this more specific than a general oud comparison.

How do their notes compare?

The named notes for DUA Luxurious For Him include Atlas Cedar, Grapefruit, Balsam Fir, Vetiver, Rose and Musk. Clive Christian L for Men lists Petitgrain, Grapefruit, Agarwood (Oud), Rose, Balsam Fir and Vetiver among its own notes.

Use those notes as a guide when trying the pair. What matters is how they fit together: a brighter opening, a softer floral middle or a drier base can change the whole impression even when some of the ingredients sound familiar.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d compare the grapefruit with the fir and woods. Use L for Men as the reference, since L for Women is a separate fragrance.

If you can get samples of both, use a similar amount and give each one time on skin. Come back to the comparison later in the day, especially if the opening and the base appeal to you for different reasons.

Which bottle makes more sense?

The choice comes down to how much you enjoy this balance on skin and which bottle fits your budget. We’d compare the current offers for DUA Luxurious For Him and Clive Christian L for Men, including the bottle size and delivery cost. Give a sample enough time before committing, especially if the opening is your favorite part but you are less sure about the finish.
