Falling down the DUA rabbit hole is a dangerous thing, lol. I have about 5 of them so far and they are all amazing and delicious. I am very impressed by this perfume house, not just because they really try to do justice to their inspiration perfumes, but also because they do truly beautiful original blends too. I purchased Aphrodisiac (Initio Psychedelic Love) a couple of months ago, but let it macerate. Yesterday, I sprayed it on and it was so intoxicating, I almost wanted to chew my arm off 😂 Sooo many Duas on my wishlist now. Other ones I own and love: She Loves Red (BDK Rouge Smoking), Royal Tonka (Shalimar Millésime Tonka), Sweet Amalfi (Xerjoff Dolce Amalfi)

The name of mine is “Blackberry & Belgian Chocolate Brandy.” I really like it, and I used a third of it, and I try to spare it. I want to buy another one. Take Care. 😊

Thank you Maria for this great channel! There are so many that my post would be the length of a book if I included them all 😄 But the one that surprised me the most in the best way possible was Dua on Lafayette St. It is unlike anything else I've ever smelled and any words I try to use to describe would not come close to doing it justice. CLASSIFICATION: Oriental Fougere, NOTES: Coriander, Flowers, Bergamot, Ambroxan, Apple, Vanilla, Woodsy Notes, Tonka Bean, and Ambergris. Green Media Cologne was a similar experience for me as far as how different it was from anything else I've tried and how incredible the scent is.

Well this was the most delightful video ❤ was laughing along with you XD Question for Val, when you first got kismet angel did you experience a gasoline smell? Any advice welcome, I just got it and all I smell is gasoline :(

Hi, Val here - oh my goodness, that’s very strange. I did not get any sort of gasoline note with that fragrance! Maybe let it macerate for a couple of weeks, but if it still smells funky to you, I would get in touch with wherever you bought it from and see if they’re willing to swap it out for a bottle from a fresher batch.

I have only been buying from Dua for about four or five months and I have almost 150 fragrances. It is definitely addicting! I love Black Widow, so at the recent vault opening, I purchased five bottles of Italiano Widow. Can't wait to try them! I have several of the fragrances you reviewed, and I just love all of them. They also have so many great Rose fragrances, I believe my favorite so far is Rose oud love! ❤️

Are you saying you have 150 fragrances total, or 150 new bottles of Dua fragrances?

Why 5 bottles of the same perfume? That just sounds like a shopping addiction.

Val here - I’ve been curious too! I haven’t tried it yet but if you like the original, I bet it’s phenomenal. I tried their version of the original formula Hypnotic Poison and fell hard in love with it. The new formulation was not impressive to me but Dua’s version is a dream. Hope that helps!

I have the OG Midnight and bought Dua’s to try. It’s about 90-95% on point, however I found that Fragrenza Ducal Palace is a much smoother and 99% accurate blend. Not sponsored 😅

Your friend Val and you are so fun to watch. Thanks for bringing her back. Bad experiences with other dupe scents has made me gun shy about trying out Dua. I’ll definitely be checking out the Jasmin Rouge copy by them because I cannot justify the price of the real one by TF for my budget.

I like Dua but had to back off buying full bottles blindly or just based on notes. I have purchased approx 20 full bottles or travel sizes. Just a little more than half have been wearable. When it’s good, it’s amazing. When it’s bad, it’s awful. That Dua DNA doesn’t mix with everything.
