What is a Dries Van Noten Raving Rose dupe, and how do we find them?

A "dupe" is a fragrance (usually cheaper) that recreates the signature of Dries Van Noten Raving Rose without necessarily being an exact copy. We rank each alternative by how much of Dries Van Noten Raving Rose'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 Dries Van Noten Raving Rose itself sits in the niche/luxury tier. A dupe shares the character, but longevity, projection and the finer note details can differ.
