Is it just me, or are fragrance dupes everywhere now?
Maybe it’s because I write a lot about perfumes and aftershaves, but I am seeing a fragrance dupe all the time.
If you don’t already know, a fragrance dupe is a scent which smells exactly like a designer fragrance. They’re cheaper alternatives made for the sole purpose of smelling like a more expensive scent.
Dupe is simply short language for “duplicate”, i.e. a certain smell has been recreated or duplicated by someone else.
As people’s tastes for more expensive designer and niche fragrances grow, people want the high end perfumes and aftershaves. But without the price tag. That is where the dupe comes in.
Here’s what you need to know about dupes.

I got myself another new fragrance…Well, a fragrance which I’ve just bought, but it’s not so new. This is Gucci Pour Homme, and the bottle might look familiar if you’ve been a fan of the Gucci cologne line for years.

Here’s what you need to know.

Leaves are falling, it’s starting to get cold, it must be Autumn! But what fragrances should you be wearing this season?
We’ve just left the Summer behind, and now you’ll be thinking about what are the best Autumn fragrances to wear. There’s so many scents which can work for this season, but I’ve picked out those which are specially suited to this time of year.
The colour most associated with Autumn is brown, we think of leaves falling and so woody scents are the perfect choice. We don’t need the heavy hitters of super warming scents more suited to Winter, but something to warm you up nonetheless.
Notes to look out for when choosing a fragrance are:
- woody
- masculine
- musky
- spicy
- aromatic
- floral
Best avoided are the citrus heavy, sweet, aquatic or fresh scents which are better suited to the Spring or Summer.
These are the best autumn fragrances you can wear in 2020
