What Is DUA Sardinia Provincia a Dupe Of?

DUA Sardinia Provincia is a clone of Masque Milano Terralba. 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’s the connection?

Clary sage, lemon, myrtle, thyme and juniper give this Terralba pairing a strong aromatic theme on paper. Immortelle, mastic and woods add more to follow. We’d compare the herbal notes against the citrus first, then come back once those woodier details have had time to develop.

How do the notes compare?

DUA Sardinia Provincia lists Clary Sage Oil, Sicilian Lemon, Green Tangerine, Myrtle, Thyme Oil, Curry Leaves, Immortelle and Mastic Oil. Masque Milano Terralba lists Lemon, Clary Sage, Tangerine, Thyme, Myrtle, Curry Tree, Immortelle and Cypress.

Both lists include Myrtle, Immortelle and Cypress, giving you a few clear points to follow in a sample. For DUA Sardinia Provincia, also look for Clary Sage Oil, Sicilian Lemon, Green Tangerine and Thyme Oil. The original’s list also includes Lemon, Clary Sage, Tangerine and Thyme.

What would we look for in a sample?

We’d give both fragrances a similar number of sprays on separate wrists, then come back after the opening settles. Check the parts you enjoy most: the brightness at the start, the balance through the middle and the way the finish feels close to skin.
