What is a Lush Karma dupe, and how do we find them?

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

Frequently asked questions

Do Lush Karma dupes smell exactly like the original?

Not necessarily. Dupes smell close, not identical; the opening, longevity and projection can differ. The "Very close/Close" label and match score next to each perfume tell you how close it really is.

Which Lush Karma dupe is closest to the original?

The one with the highest match score and a "Very close" label shares the most of Lush Karma's signature. You'll find it in the "Closest matches" section on this page.

Which brands make the best Lush Karma clones?

Budget Middle-Eastern brands like Lattafa, Armaf, Maison Alhambra, Paris Corner and Al Haramain usually make the closest, best-value clones. Alternatives from those brands are flagged "Budget brand" on this page.

What's the difference between a "dupe" and a "similar" perfume?

Every dupe is a similar perfume, but a dupe aims to recreate that specific fragrance (usually for less). If you just want scent-alikes, see the "all perfumes similar to Lush Karma" page.
