Game of Spades Wild Card captures the crisp citrus opening and elegant iris-driven heart of Lafayette Street fairly well, making it a serviceable alternative. However, the clone tends to feel slightly sharper in the top notes and the base lacks the refined complexity and longevity of the original, with the cedarwood and vetiver coming across as more linear and less sophisticated.
The clone offers good initial similarity but falls short in projection and base note development, lasting 4-5 hours versus Lafayette Street's 7-8 hour wear. The original's refined iris and woody base feel more polished, while the clone presents a somewhat flatter evolution.

“The only dupe in my entire collection and that speaks volumes on how good this is. Smells to my nose, exactly like Lafayette Street. Very strong projection and long lasting. I mainly use it to go out at night especially during the summer since it is fresh but also sweet on the dry down. My gf loves it and it gathers a ton of compliments. It’s very strong tho, I see this only as a casual or like going out scent only as It would be a little cloying and overpowering as an office, professional or gym scent.For the price, definitely recommend it. Great presentation and atomizer as well.”
“After smelling Lafayette street I can confirm that this cuts very close to being a 1 to 1 dupe.The only thing that struck me as different was that the Lafayette street opening was different but I can’t put my finger on what was different.This stuff smells great it’s slightly citrusy floral and sweet smelling and it lasts for a good 6-8 hours on my skinOverall for the price and the quality of this dupe it is 100% worth it!!I will be buying this again!”
“Smells the EXACT same as Lafayette Street and I never think clones or dupes are 1:1. I literally had a decant of Lafayette St beside me and sprayed GOS on my right wrist and LS on my right. Besides the opening where it has a strong lemon cleaner type of smell, it’s the same thing and if you told sum1 you were wearing LS there’s no way they wouldn’t believe you.I don’t see the point of buying Bond no.9 when this is the same thing for cheaper and last longer.”
