Which Should You Buy?
The Fragrance World UK's £4.95/30ml interpretation of Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir (2005) - the pyramid maps the original's pomegranate opening, casablanca lily heart, and patchouli dry-down. Liverpool dupe-house pricing on a recognisable smell-alike for casual rotation.
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Jo Malone London's Pomegranate Noir (2005) - the Christine Nagel pomegranate-pink pepper-patchouli unisex composition that became Jo Malone's defining dark-fruity signature, here translated into a pomegranate-raspberry opening over Casablanca lily and a patchouli-guaiac close. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening unisex wear at a fraction of the designer-niche price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The pomegranate-led opening and patchouli-anchored close mirror the original's seasonal range, though the budget composition fades faster than the Jo Malone bottle in heavier conditions.
Occasions
A budget interpretation that keeps the original's structure - the dupe reads cleaner and shorter, making it best suited to casual rotation rather than as a replacement for the Jo Malone signature.
Seasons
Fruity-warm-spicy structure peaks in autumn and winter; summer carries too rich.
Occasions
Sophisticated fruity-warm unisex fits evening, date, formal. Office and casual work for fans of the warm style.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fruity, Woody, Warm Spicy accords and Patchouli, Pomegranate notes
