What the list tells you

Price is the obvious driver. Most of these list for $120 or more, and the top three list for well over $250. The more a fragrance costs relative to what people think it's worth, the more copies appear.

Popularity matters too. Dior Sauvage, Bleu de Chanel and Paco Rabanne Invictus are not expensive by niche standards, but they sell in huge volumes, and clone houses follow the volume.

Tom Ford has four fragrances in the top 25 (Tobacco Vanille, Lost Cherry, Oud Wood and Tuscan Leather), more than any other house. Louis Vuitton Imagination, launched in 2021, is the newest fragrance in the top five, which shows how quickly a hit gets copied.

How to use the list

A big pile of clones means more choice but not better choice. Aventus has 87 clones in our data, and only two score 85% or higher. Use the match score, the price and the wearer notes on each page to narrow it down.

If your favorite fragrance is on this list, start with its dedicated guide: Aventus, Baccarat Rouge 540, Angels' Share, Sauvage, Bleu de Chanel, Louis Vuitton Imagination or Erba Pura.
