A+ Powerful Clones Of Absolu Aventus Elysium + MORE - Cheap Clone Fragrances

[@chadmanhardin328]

Keep doing dua reviews Ash. They definitely have solidified their spot in the world of fragrance. Also they’ve made some of my most complimented frags.

[@anwarasheed2844]

Dua deletes bad comments, threatens people who leave bad reviews etc. not an ethical brand and relatively overpriced per ml

[@richparkinson9647]

Of all the negativity or complaints, this is the one I can agree with. Then again, some people just like to shut on things no matter what. So I can see if they’re removing shitposts. I don’t understand all the hate they receive from fragrance snobs.

[@Team_Spiegel]

Totally agree. They sent me a free bottle to make up for their customer service. Nice gesture really. I received the bottle, and it was terrible, Nothing close to the original. I'm not a snob by any means. I had no issue with letting it sit, like three months. No change. I left a review on their site... nothing terrible. I suggested it might have been a bad batch. Of course, it was deleted. I'm actually very disappointed , Ash is doing these. To each their own, and as such, I will skip his Dua vids.

[@KeyScents223]

I can say for a fact they delete reviews.

[@oldschoolfunkster1]

I don't know what DUA does to its reviewers...but they all end up joining the cult. Reviewers "suddenly" forget there are other Indy clone houses and end up pushing DUA only. They are over priced. Hmm🤔I wonder... Let's see how many Ash reviews of Alexandria, Zoha...

[@JT-rx1eo]

Yes I've tried to leave bad reviews on their site. You can't. Blatant signature of a deceitful entity.

[@bradpeterson5299]

I have a Dua collection myself. They have a hybrid called Poseidons Absolu Savage elixer. It is amazing. My number one complemented fragrance

[@mailovdp2481]

I have read that they are just scammers alot. but from your comment it states otherwise what is your opinion on the brand?

[@michaelleavitt3834]

I have some Dua in my collection. I enjoy their interpretation of classic fragrances. Maybe you could just review their version of discontinued fragrances. That is my reason for buying clones. It would narrow the focus on their massive catalog and be a subject you (and I) enjoy. Great video btw. 🎉

[@eddiemaxwell6949]

The theme of clones of discontinued fragrances from any house would be interesting.

[@Texas240]

I've enjoyed Dua's take on Romance, Acqua Di Gio (original formulation), and Boss (original formulation). I suppose I do consider reformulated to oblivion the same as discontinued.

[@mlinger18]

@@Texas240I was gonna buy the romance and the ysl ultime dupe but heard dua is trash

[@matthewwilliams8606]

I'm glad you made this video. Dua has come a long way. I own about 30 of them. The packaging and sprayer are much better now.

[@moviestoshare813]

How’s the quality ? I was looking at some of their hybrids (Ex : MFK Grand Soir & Nishane Ani and others… They really have a lot) But I’m curious to know the quality of their juice ? How close are they to the original fragrances they take inspiration from ?

[@Username-ei6xb]

The quality is top notch, probably using the same ingredient as OG. I said about 90% close to OG but it has its own twist, some even better than OG

[@dionwatters992]

@@Username-ei6xb I agree. They are top notch quality and not at all on the level of what people would call a clone house.

[@anthonylopez5]

What a lot of people don’t understand about why Dua cost more than the average clone is because of the concentration of their fragrances. They’re higher than the originals and other clones meaning you get great performance. They use extrait de parfum which is the highest concentration a fragrance can have not counting attars (oils). Higher concentration = less sprays=not re-stocking your supply as often. It’s really just that simple.

[@stevepinnock5668]

Totally agree. I only bought a Dua as they had a remake of an old discontinued fragrance CK Crave. The Dua version was called Craveme. The Dua version although much thicker and heavier was so close to the OG only much better quality. Well worth the price in my circumstances. I was very impressed.

[@mikejump64]

Dua has some amazing fragrances...

[@birdgang502]

😂😂😂😂

[@Texas240]

​@@stevepinnock5668I'd been searching for something like the discontinued Romance for men by Ralph Lauren when I found Dua. They're a great resource for discontinued fragrances that land close to the original. The fact that they use extrait de parfum concentration will change the way the fragrance mists, disperse, and dries. So, the fragrance will change some in practical use from that.

Love this so much! Make this a monthly or quarterly thing!

[@Godstrumpet2010]

I’m sure any fragrance house has fragrances SOMEONE won’t like. But I only have 9 Dua fragrances so far. I absolutely love 4 of them. I like the other 5 very much. I can’t deny the quality. I suppose it just depends on choosing fragrances that you actually like from Dua.

[@dionwatters992]

I have about 35 Dua and I can say they are great. Many of the clones of designer brands tend to run $33 ($22 on weekends) and the Niche clones tend to be $55-60 ($42-48ish on weekend sales) I have bought many of these while already having the originals and they are extremely close and when you buy anything that had originally had poor performance it is usually a great performer when they make it. The only one I didn't like the longevity of was the Romance clone. Most are 10-12 hour with about 5 sprays.

[@SamWayne85]

I can attest to the maceration. I have their YSL Lhomme Libre and Ultime clones as wel as the Elysium. The blend gets much richer after a month.

[@Carvel0]

I use to love dua. Had about 25 fragrance from them. They changed something in their ingredients because all the fragrances had a very NASTY musty base. I brought two for someone as a gift and they literally gave them back to me a week later. Since then lattafa has came in a crush the clone space. Now I can't see myself paying $60 for a 1oz clone. $60 for 30ml Plus having to wait weeks for the fragrances macerate.

[@RoccoWayne]

I can say this, FORTUNE by DUA is FIRE.

[@adolfocarlo7043]

Duas improve when you let them sit for a few weeks, I have around 100 Duas, I can tell around 70% of them improved with maturation, some more than others. The reason is, all fragances go thru a maturation process on stills at factories. Duas are assembled on order so they miss this time, allow them time and you will be even more impressed on how, must of the time, you can hardly tell the difference with the OG, and several times with a lot better performance.

[@richielovin91]

Assembled on order? Ok but why there is a number in stock when you check on of their frags?

[@cocopapi]

Dua Brand obsevations: Clone accuracy is hit and miss, but quality is consistently excellent, in my experience. Lighter, more airy scent profiles sometimes do not benefit from the extrait concentration. Some bottles improve with maceration and some don't. After initial aeration, some bottles require a few weeks to mature and some can take months, often deepening in colour. Juice that remains in the stem between uses can become further oxidized, making you think the bottle has gone off until it clears. Dua is the best resource for many discontinued Tom Ford titles.

[@johnadair4693]

Nice to see dua getting props ,I swear by them, I've purchased over 200 I usually buy dua first, then if I'm in love I will buy the original, their clone of lidge is even better than the original formulations .

[@pedrog7663]

Bro please do more of these! I’m not a super fan a clones but Dua slaps. I have 7 bottles and a couple of samples and I’ve already got a backup of my favorite (allure Homme sport edition Blanche). Also, can confirm that they get stronger with time over a few weeks.

[@FirstBallot7]

Ash, Dua makes some great stuff, like any other clone house, sometimes they miss the mark but for the most part they usually do a great job, from my experiences. One clone that's needed for better longevity purposes is Gentlemen Reserve Privee. Maybe you could use your influencer status and push for them to give us a longer lasting clone of Gentlemen Reserve Privee, I haven't seen any clones on this anywhere so far. We definitely need a longer lasting Reserve Privee! Maybe even with a little more whiskey and a bit more iris!

It ends my pathetic search for Aventus. It wasn’t a giving up in as much as it was a finding of an absolutely beautiful scent that suits me AND in my opinion is very similar to the ghost of years ago, the long lost Aventus. One final note. Though I am thrilled with this dua scent, I am now curious to try the other hyped Absolu clones.
