Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Cinéma lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Cinéma.

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

Strength: perfume oil, among the most concentrated formats a dupe comes in.

At $26 it costs 75% less than Cinéma.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dupe Spot 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

What it is chasing: amaryllis, cyclamen and clementine up top, jasmine, peony and almond blossom in the middle, amber, vanilla and musk underneath — the shape of Yves Saint Laurent Cinéma.

Top

  • amaryllis
  • cyclamen
  • clementine

Heart

  • jasmine
  • peony
  • almond blossom

Base

  • amber
  • vanilla
  • musk
Almond blossom and amber, soft-focus and warmly cinematic.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
