Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Yeah!
This YSL Y dupe is a divisive one. Many hail it as an impressive, affordable clone, even preferring it to the original. Others complain of poor performance and a harsh, cheap opening. For the price, it's worth a punt for dedicated fans of the scent profile, but don't expect miracles.

Our Verdict - Inspired by YSL Y
Match Fragrances' interpretation of YSL's Y Eau de Parfum (2018) - the Dominique Ropion, Calice Becker and Anne Flipo apple-sage-ambroxan masculine that became YSL's modern white-shirt signature, here translated into an apple-ginger opening over geranium and a ambroxan-cedar close. Honest dupe-fidelity for daytime and date wear at a fraction of the designer price.
