Dua's 'Another 13 Shades' captures the airy, slightly fruity character of the original's pear top note and the creamy musk-ambergris base effectively. The clone maintains the delicate balance of iso e super and ambrette that gives the original its soft, skin-like quality, though the overall composition may feel slightly less refined in the mid-transition.
The clone performs well in overall structure but may show slightly reduced longevity and a marginally less complex development compared to the original. Sillage appears comparable, though the heart notes may project with less nuance.
