What Is Velixir Apollo a Dupe Of?

Velixir Apollo is a YSL Y Eau de Parfum clone

Velixir Apollo is a clone of YSL Y Eau de Parfum. We rate the similarity at 90%. Apple, ginger, aromatic herbs and woods connect Apollo with Y EDP.

Apollo sits in the fresh aromatic style associated with Y Eau de Parfum. Apple and ginger are useful clues, followed by herbs and a woody base. We're comparing it with the Y EDP here, so the 90% rating belongs to that bottle rather than the EDT, Le Parfum or another Y flanker.

Apple, ginger and aromatic woods

Apollo lists green apple, ginger and bergamot in its opening. Clary sage and juniper berries give the heart its aromatic direction. Its catalog base includes amberwood, cedar, tonka bean, olibanum and vetiver, bringing several woody and warmer notes into the picture.

Y EDP also combines a fresh opening with an herbal middle and woods underneath. Sage, geranium and cedar are useful parts of that reference to keep in mind. Apple and ginger connect the fresh side of the pair, while the aromatic and woody notes give the comparison its broader shape.

Juniper berries and vetiver are worth noticing on Apollo's list if you enjoy the greener side of fresh fragrances. A note list can't tell you exactly how much of each material you'll smell, but it can help you pick out which parts of the style appeal to you before sampling.

Choosing Apollo or the original

If Y EDP is the sort of fragrance you reach for regularly, Apollo is a Velixir to put on your shortlist. Our 90% similarity rating gives you a starting point for the comparison. Your preference may come down to how the fresh fruit, herbs and woods balance on your own skin.
