What Is DUA Wild Heart a Dupe Of?

DUA Wild Heart is a clone of Montale Beast Love. The notes point toward pear and plum over leather. Here’s what connects them and what we’d check before buying.

What connects the two?

Beast Love is the reference. Pear and plum give us a sweet fruit direction, with black leather and white cedar providing a drier side to compare.

How do their notes compare?

DUA Wild Heart lists Pear, Plum, Sicilian Bergamot, Black Leather and White Cedar among its notes. Montale Beast Love lists Pear, Plum, Sicilian Bergamot, Leather, Cedar and Turkish Rose 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 check whether the fruit and leather balance stays enjoyable after the first spray.

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 Wild Heart if you want to try this scent idea in DUA’s interpretation. Choose Montale Beast Love 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.
