What Is DUA Smoked Cherry a Dupe Of?

DUA Smoked Cherry is a clone of Tom Ford Cherry Smoke. That is the original behind this pairing, with sour cherry, leather, saffron and smoke as the starting point for a comparison.

Why this pairing makes sense

Smoked Cherry follows Cherry Smoke through sour cherry, saffron, leather and smoke. Apricot, osmanthus, olive and woods also appear in both profiles. The leather and smoky notes give this comparison a different focus from a simple sweet-cherry fragrance.

This guide uses Tom Ford Cherry Smoke, separate from Lost Cherry and Electric Cherry.

How do their notes compare?

DUA gives this scent a single note list. Its listed notes include Sour Cherry, Leather, Smoke, Saffron, Apricot, Chinese Osmanthus and Woody Notes. That gives you a few specific notes to look for in a sample.

Tom Ford Cherry Smoke lists Sour Cherry, Saffron, Leather, Olive, Chinese Osmanthus, Apricot and Smoke among its notes. You can see the complete profiles above, with each scent’s own labels and structure. A note list describes the idea; it does not tell you the proportions or guarantee that two fragrances develop the same way.

What would we compare on skin?

We’d compare the cherry against the leather and smoke once the opening settles. The original also names cypriol, which is absent from DUA’s saved list.

Which one should you choose?

We’d start with DUA Smoked Cherry if you want to explore sour cherry, leather, saffron and smoke in DUA’s interpretation. Choose the original if having that specific reference is the priority. Before ordering either one, compare bottle sizes, the current delivered cost and the retailer’s return policy. A sample is especially useful if one particular note is the reason you are interested.
