The review

On paper, Water Of The Senses is a strong bet if you want Eau des Sens for less.

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

At $33 it costs 82% less than Eau des Sens.

Value9.1
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 bitter orange, juniper berries and angelica, turns to orange blossom and orange leaf, and settles into patchouli, musk and amber. That is the brief Water Of The Senses is working from.

Top

  • bitter orange
  • juniper berries
  • angelica

Heart

  • orange blossom
  • orange leaf

Base

  • patchouli
  • musk
  • amber
Bitter orange, blossom and leaf all at once, green and golden and endlessly refreshing.
