If you're strictly about scent it won't make sense. If your pocket could afford a designer and want to treat yourself with something expensive, why not? Go for it. It's all up to you. I most have clone fragrances, but there are some designers I just desire to have.

Chasing the best clone, meaning you have 3-4 of a scent profile, perhaps purchasing the original might have be the better option especially with designers. If not you'll go down the Angles Share rabbit 🕳️ of disappointment... I have Moustache, Kismet, and am satisfied with The Tux, it is amazing! Try the original if you can't live without it, buy it. I clone things that are discontinued, hard to obtain, for gifting, or ridiculously marked at a price I refuse to pay. In that order.

Ash hasn’t “pushed” anything. He still criticizes what clone houses do. A scent isn’t illegal to copy, however, when clone houses go as far as stealing bottle designs. Ash will call them out on their bs. It’s always been his style. He also reminds his fan base every now and then to support brands they love. “If you have the money for it, buy from the actual brand”. If you love something, support it, simple as that.
