Is Blossom Perfumery 471 Ultra Male a dupe of Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male?

Which Should You Buy?
A divisive, loud, sweet, and undeniably playful beast-mode fragrance that's either a masterful clubbing tool or a saccharine nightmare. Love it or hate it, Ultra Male demands attention.
No.471 recreates Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male's sweet pear-and-vanilla signature reasonably well up top, but the cinnamon-spice heart is quieter and the vanilla base loses its creamy, almost gourmand thickness far sooner than the original.
