The Scoop

Ébène by Maison Alhambra captures the creamy floral sweetness of Baby Cat quite well, with a similar balance between the bright citrus opening and the soft, powdery heart. However, the clone tends to project slightly less intensity in the mid-notes, making the peony-tuberose combination feel more subtle than the original's prominent almond-tinged florality.

Key Differences

The Alhambra version has slightly shorter longevity (5-6 hours vs 7-8 hours) and a marginally softer sillage. The vanilla-musk base in the clone is more restrained, creating a less creamy dry-down compared to the original's richer finish.

What wearers say

“Pretty decent clone.First 5 minutes it smells a little synthetic and harsh.After that it calms down and becomes pretty similar, I would say it’s a saltier or maybe less smooth compared to BabyCat.And for some reason I feel this one is less unisex and more masculin.It’s quality and performance certainly lower than the BabyCat, it’s not a game changer, but it’s noticeable.Price- value wise, good, you get a decent perfume, smells generally similar for low price. I got it for around 30 dollars.If you like the BabyCat DNA you would find this one appealing.7/10 don’t blind buy!”

“Have had this for a few months; opens spicy, woody, and vaguely sparkling, retains its woody spiciness as a creamy vanilla emerges during the drydown and stays.Perfect for cool/cold weather, lasts all day.A great dupe of Babycat and its dupe Rifaaqat by Paris Corner.”

“I am torn a bit on this one. I am not huge on the opening, or the mid but the dry down is very nice. I think the opening for me has a bit too much clove, comes off rather smoky which to me overpowers the other notes. Maybe I need to let it age a bit longer and try again in a couple months when it's colder.On a positive note, the longevity on fabric seems pretty impressive. I had sprayed it on an undershirt, was doing laundry like three days later and i could still pick it up pretty easily. Overall, recommended with those caveats, hope it improves with time.”
