What Is DUA Regal Jasmine a Dupe Of?

DUA Regal Jasmine is a clone of Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge. The notes point toward jasmine, warm spice and amber. Here’s what connects them and what we’d check before buying.

What connects the two?

Jasmine and ylang-ylang sit with ginger, cinnamon and cardamom in these lists. Leather and amber add further details, giving the comparison a warmer, spicier angle than a simple jasmine bouquet might suggest.

How do their notes compare?

DUA Regal Jasmine lists French labdanum, Ylang-Ylang, Clary Sage, Bergamot, Cardamom and Cinnamon among its notes. Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge lists Ginger, Cinnamon, Bergamot, Cardamom, Pepper and Mandarin 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?

Notice how much spice you enjoy around the jasmine. We'd also check the leather detail rather than assume the floral name tells the whole story.

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 Regal Jasmine if you want to try this scent idea in DUA’s interpretation. Choose Tom Ford Jasmin Rouge 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.
