The review
On paper, City of Dua is a reasonable bet if you want City of Stars for less.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is City of Stars's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on blood orange, lime and blood mandarin, turns to tiare flower, and settles into powdery notes, musk and sandalwood. That is the brief City of Dua is working from.
Top
- blood orange
- lime
- blood mandarin
Heart
- tiare flower
Base
- powdery notes
- musk
- sandalwood
Blood orange and tiare over powdered musk, bright then suddenly soft, palm shadows at golden hour.
