The Scoop
Plumlicious captures the fruity-spiced character of Plum Japonais reasonably well, with a prominent plum and saffron opening that mimics the original's distinctive profile. The heart notes maintain the floral-spiced balance, though the immortelle tends to read slightly sweeter and less sophisticated than Tom Ford's version. The base follows suit with comparable woody-amber warmth, but lacks some of the original's depth and refinement in the oud-vanilla interplay.
Key Differences
Dua's clone slightly overshoots the sweetness in the heart and base, making it feel less refined and slightly more linear than the original. Longevity and sillage are moderately close but the designer version has superior projection and evolution over time.

What wearers say
“I tried wearing this twice so far (re-stock Oct/Nov 21 version). It's a blast of oud (similar to TF Plum Japonais) at the opening, but that's the only similarity I can find. Whereas Plum Japonais eventually lightens to a slightly sweet, spicy plum on me, Plumlicious stays an overpowering soapy oud. Not many are on my hate shelf, but this is close. I will give it a few more tries, but Plumlicious was either reformulated once it was back in stock after a year or it doesn't work on me. I love TF Plum Japonais. This DUA reminds me of my grandpa and an old man's bathroom.”
“Had this for a few months, top off. This is ripened plums preserved in saffron and oud oil with some greenness at the top. Overall it wears rich and slightly boozy, but the boozy aspect leans a touch medicinal but not offputtingly so.Perfect for cool/cold weather, lasts for ages, projects very strongly.It's possible there may have been a reformulation/tweaking of the original composition because the previous reviews don't match up with what I smelled in my bottle. Definitely worth trying.”
“This is a wonderful combo of powerhouse and comfort. The spicy incense is tempered by the lingering sweetness of dark plum. It avoids being cloying in both spiciness and sweetness. While it goes on rather masculine, the dry down leans feminine. Unique and certainly a statement fragrance.”
