UFF Perfume Clones by “o perfumes” (inspired/fragrance-clone house).

The video compares 9 clone/inspired perfumes against their OG (original) counterparts, and also evaluates each as a standalone fragrance, considering:

  • Closeness (to the OG)
  • Performance (projection + longevity)
  • Packaging / atomizer
  • Price

Overall verdict (concise)

Best picks (most faithful clones)

  • Most Wanted → Outlaw (≈ 80–75% close)
  • Red Tobacco → Cinnabon (≈ 70–75% close; “very convincing”)
  • Blue Diel → Planet Blue (≈ 70–75% close)

Best standalone “original-feel” pick

  • Oceanic (liked more than its OG; “top-notch” standalone)

Caution

Several others are described as only ~40–55% close, with noticeable note/profile differences such as:

  • Soapy opening/structure
  • Missing elements like ginger/flint
  • Shifts in tobacco / vanilla / spice profile

Key pricing & format (repeated across products)

  • 100 ml: $12.99
  • 20 ml: $3.99–$4.00 (also mentioned as ~400 rupees)
  • Multiple sizes (e.g., 100 ml / 50 ml / 20 ml / 2 ml) and pricing is described as consistent across the range.

Common strengths mentioned (user experience, packaging, value)

  • Atomizers: praised as high quality and delivering a controlled spray (described with a “wow” effect).
  • Packaging & presentation: boxes feel value-added, with good branding and details—not cheap, good for gifting.
  • Blend quality: generally strong; alcoholic openings described as not harsh (e.g., Planet Blue and Wild are noted as smooth, with no sneezing/coughing reported).

Detailed unique points by perfume (closeness + performance + pros/cons)

1) Earthy (clone of “Terse/Terris” — OG: Terse)

  • Closeness: judged ~50%
  • Smell character: OG felt fresher with more citrus; Earthy felt more earthy with prominent floral note(s).
  • Note differences: OG’s “flint” (stone/crushed stone) is present in the OG but not in Earthy.
  • Pros (standalone): liked it; described as pleasant like a “concentrated oil perfume.”
  • Cons: not close as a clone; modest longevity/projection.
  • Performance: soft projection, ~4–5 hours longevity on clothes.
  • Pricing + value: $12.99 (100 ml); atomizer/packaging help overall even with weaker clone accuracy.

2) Passion (clone of Versace Eros/OS — OG referenced as “Versace OS” and “passion”)

  • Closeness: ~60–65%
  • Preference (speaker): both felt “very sweet,” but Passion was less sweet than OG and closer to her taste.
  • Comparison detail: OG described as like “typical shower gel” with more sweetness; Passion keeps the vibe with less sweetness.
  • Pros: better projection than Earthy.
  • Cons: still not a match; sweetness remains a drawback.
  • Performance: moderate projection, ~4–5 hours longevity (may drop ~1 hour in high heat).

3) Outlaw (clone of Azzaro Most Wanted)

  • Closeness: ~75–80%
  • Blind-test outcome: described as second in a previous blind test (an intense scent was ranked first).
  • Performance vs Passion: moderate projection; ~6–6.5 hours longevity on clothes.
  • Pros: strong performance for price; considered a “good option.”
  • Cons: not the top match in their blind-test hierarchy.
  • Pricing: $12.99, described as strong value.

4) Oceanic (clone of Aquad/“Aquad Digio” — OG referenced as Acqua di Gio / Aquad Digio)

  • Closeness: stated as “not close” to OG (speaker says it’s not close even though they loved it).
  • Smell character: marine/sea-breeze feel, but missing OG’s specific sweetness structure.
  • Standalone praise: liked it a lot; used it for the gym; described as possibly more enjoyable than OG due to different balance (citrus + florals; less sweetness than OG).
  • Pros: strong standalone; good for workouts.
  • Cons: clone accuracy not the focus here.
  • Performance: projection moderate, ~6 hours longevity (realistically ~5 hours if sweating).
  • Explicitly called the “top-notch” standalone original-feel pick.

5) Soothing Fire (clone of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille)

  • Closeness: judged ~40%
  • Key differences: OG tobacco-vanilla described as having smoky / dry tobacco flavor; Soothing Fire has more spice + more sweetness, but tobacco profile differs.
  • Preference: one speaker loves tobacco; the other generally dislikes tobacco/vanilla and still didn’t love the clone.
  • Pros: better than many in performance; good cold-weather use.
  • Cons: not close; may feel too warm/spicy for summer.
  • Performance: stronger than moderate projection; ~1–1.5 hours projection; ~7 hours longevity on clothes.
  • Season guidance: strictly winters; avoid daytime summer.

6) Masculine Mystique (clone of YSL Y)

  • Closeness: split opinion
    • One speaker: ~40%
    • Another: ~65% (still not great)
  • What differs: missing/incorrect ginger; dominated by green apple + florals; dry-down not matching.
  • Pros: acceptable as a standalone.
  • Cons: described as a letdown for a YSL Y clone; performance softer than OG.
  • Performance: soft projection, ~4–5 hours longevity.

7) Cinnabon (clone of Red Tobacco — Roja/Antonio Red Tobacco style)

  • Closeness: ~70–75% (sometimes up to 80% at times; overall consensus ~70–75%)
  • Key missing/overemphasis: “burnt flavor”/smokiness differs; Cinnabon is airier/lighter, less harsh medicinal opening than Red Tobacco.
  • Wearability: better for people avoiding harsh opening; “more wearable from the get-go.”
  • Pros: strong clone value; can be indistinguishable for many unless side-by-side with a trained nose.
  • Cons: medicinal harshness is still an issue avoided better here, but the DNA isn’t perfect.
  • Performance: projection more than moderate; ~7 hours longevity on clothes.
  • Comparison inside their lineup (vs “Red Tobacco” clone):
    • Red Tobacco clone described as beast-mode with higher projection/longevity, but harsher/medicinal opening.
    • Cinnabon is the smoother alternative.
  • The speaker ranks this among favorites.

8) Wild (clone of Dior Sauvage)

  • Closeness: ~50–55%
  • Main issue: described as too soapy, ruining the OG-style peppery structure.
  • Note comparison: OG has peppery / pink pepper aspects; Wild shifts toward citrusy with added soapy character.
  • Pros: works like a refreshing cologne/after-bath scent on hot days.
  • Cons: not close enough as a Sauvage clone.
  • Performance: ~45 minutes to 1 hour projection, moderate projection overall; ~6 hours longevity on clothes.
  • Extra test mention: opening (“alcoholic blast”) planned for evaluation; later notes suggest smoothness compared to common harsh clones.

9) Planet Blue (clone of Bleu de Chanel “Blue Disel”)

  • Closeness: ~70–75%
  • Key missing detail: sandalwood hint isn’t recreated with the same finesse; “scent bubble”/cinematic diffusion isn’t as strong.
  • Pros: very good clone quality for a difficult OG; smooth blending and acceptable opening.
  • Cons: projection doesn’t create the same “bubble” effect; not beast-mode.
  • Performance: ~6 hours longevity; ~1 hour projection (soft to moderate), described as pleasant while moving around.
  • Comparison note: they state it’s hard to get good Bleu de Chanel clones; mention of another clone house (Follow Me Perfumes) and a plan for more blind testing.

Overall “winners” named in the video

  • Most Wanted → Outlaw
  • Red Tobacco → Cinnabon
  • Blue Disel → Planet Blue

These are explicitly listed as the closest OG options.
