The review

On paper, Dua’s Fireplace is a reasonable bet if you want By the Fireplace for less.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is By the Fireplace's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Evidence7.0

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 cloves, pink pepper and orange blossom, turns to chestnut, guaiac wood and juniper, and settles into vanilla, peru balsam and Cashmeran. That is the brief Dua’s Fireplace is working from.

Top

  • cloves
  • pink pepper
  • orange blossom

Heart

  • chestnut
  • guaiac wood
  • juniper

Base

  • vanilla
  • peru balsam
  • Cashmeran
For the one who craves a crackling winter hearth, roasting chestnuts and smoky wood wrapped in creamy vanilla warmth on cold nights.
