What is a Diptyque Kyoto dupe, and how do we find them?

A "dupe" is a fragrance (usually cheaper) that recreates the signature of Diptyque Kyoto without necessarily being an exact copy. We rank each alternative by how much of Diptyque Kyoto's defining notes and accords it shares (rare, signature notes count for more), not by molecular analysis, which is why each one shows a match score and exactly what it has in common.

The closest dupes often come from "budget brands" like Lattafa, Armaf, Maison Alhambra and Al Haramain, which specialise in recreating expensive perfumes, while Diptyque Kyoto itself sits in the niche/luxury tier. A dupe shares the character, but longevity, projection and the finer note details can differ.
