'Dupe Fragrances' - BBC Morning Live

[factormax]

The allure and science of duplicate fragrances ('Dupes') explored in this short feature on BBC's Morning Live programme today, in which M&S 'Cool Vetiver' is compared to Creed Aventus. The relevant section starts at 36:13.

I like Aventus, and intend to try the M&S Cool Vetiver. Because that's the kind of cheap tart I am.

Yes… saw that. Interesting.

It was good. Didn't mention about projection though. I find smell-alikes often need to smelt up close

In my own opinion this is a very close clone and lasts all day

Worth checking out it's better than the Federico Mahora supposed dupe
