The review

On paper, Karagöz is a strong bet if you want Karagöz for less.

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

Strength: eau de parfum, on a par with most originals.

At $23 per 100ml it costs 91% less than Karagöz — the cheapest of 2 twins we can price.

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

The original opens on bergamot, cinnamon and pink pepper, turns to tobacco leaf, rose and cocoa, and settles into leather, patchouli and amber. That is the brief Karagöz is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • cinnamon
  • pink pepper

Heart

  • tobacco leaf
  • rose
  • cocoa

Base

  • leather
  • patchouli
  • amber
Sweet tobacco and cinnamon over rose and leather, theatrical and warm as lamplight.

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

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 2 twins of Nishane Karagöz we can price, Karagöz is the cheapest per 100ml.

  1. 01 The Dupe Spot Karagöz $23/100ml
  2. 02 Perfume Parlour Adjara $122/100ml
