Dupes for Colonia Oud Eau de Toilette
1 affordable alternative
Original
A divisive oud, this one. Some reckon it's a masterpiece of fresh, approachable oud-leather with beastly performance, while others find it unremarkable, lacking oud, or just a bit too much. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Dupes
Colonia Oud and Enigma Trois both aim for a citrus-oud-leather profile but diverge in execution.
What makes a good dupe?
A good dupe captures the essence of the original fragrance - the same mood, the key accords, the general character - at a more accessible price point. It doesn't need to be a molecule-for-molecule copy. The best dupes feel right for the same occasions and carry a similar energy, giving you more ways to enjoy a scent profile you love.
We assess dupes by comparing the fragrance profile of the original against the dupe: shared accords, overlapping notes, similar longevity and projection, and occasion suitability. Our similarity scores reflect how closely the two fragrances align in character - not just raw ingredients.
