The review

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

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

It is sold as a perfume oil — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $26 it costs 76% less than Manifesto.

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 blackcurrant, bergamot and green notes, turns to jasmine and lily of the valley, and settles into Tonka Bean, vanilla and cedar. That is the brief Manifesto is working from.

Top

  • blackcurrant
  • bergamot
  • green notes

Heart

  • jasmine
  • lily of the valley

Base

  • Tonka Bean
  • vanilla
  • cedar
Green blackcurrant into a big jasmine, landing on soft tonka and vanilla.

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