Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
After giving it another go from a different angle, I’m revising my take: the opening bears no resemblance to Tsar at all. While the original is fresh and woody, Dua’s version is warm and amber-laden, losing that crisp freshness I adore. That said, there are three Tsars, and according to some, Dua leans closer to the Jade edition than the Emerald. As it dries down, it bears an uncanny resemblance to Tsar—more so than any other fragrance I know—yet it retains that amber note until the very end, feeling more like a warm flanker than a clone. Beyond the question of whether it’s a clone, as a fragrance in its own right, it’s captivating in temperate or cold climates, radiating that eighties flair that vintage lovers will adore. Verdict: Would I recommend it as a clone? I’m not sure. As a fragrance in its own right? Absolutely.
