Black Widow by Dua captures the spicy-woody DNA of Black Phantom effectively, with a comparable opening brightness and dark woody heart. However, the clone tends to soften the incense and oud slightly, making it less aggressive and more wearable for everyday occasions compared to Kilian's more intense, smoky interpretation.
Dua's version has slightly reduced sillage and longevity, with a gentler incense projection in the heart notes. The base performs similarly, though some users report the musk in the clone is more prominent, rounding out the fragrance's overall character compared to the original's sharper edges.
