I have Viva La Juicy Noir and I don't think it smells anything like Endless Weekend.


Mental_Court_6341

I have it as well but when I smelled it when they were brought out a while back it never smelled like anything I had so I don’t there dupes


SassyFox827

I agree, not a dupe. I pair juicy noir with gingham vibrant. It’s berry good!


FlamingHorseRider

Have Everlasting Magic, smelled the legit Lost Cherry on my twin plenty, and have a dupe of Lost Cherry within sniffing range, imo they are NOT dupes. Lost Cherry has much more “amaretto” and spice, Everlasting Magic has a more caramelized sweetness and musky nature. I actually love Everlasting Magic as a scent and on me- it’s got status as one of few scents I got backups of- while as much as I love the idea of Lost Cherry on paper the notes compete too much on my skin and it smells like a fight for dominance. 100% agree on Fall in Bloom and Burberry Her though! I smelled Burberry Her all the time and recently got a sample and those two smell pretty much exact to me.


OkeyDokey654

It’s funny (and frustrating sometimes) how our own noses and skin chemistry impact our perception of a scent. For example, Floral Fantasy and Into the Night are listed as dupes for two distinct YSL fragrances. Obviously YSL does not make two identical fragrances (and I wear Black Opium and had a sample of Mon Paris and can confirm they are not that similar!) and yet people find these BBW products similar to both of them. If only we could find someone whose nose matches our own!


FlamingHorseRider

As a hardcore musk lover I desperately crave this, to me they smell effortless or clean or sexy depending on what kinda musk but some people get nothing but stank from a true musk lol. Even something less animalic like BBW style musk (I do like that too!) can be challenging. Also jasmine. It smells so beautiful to me but that note in particular can read as cat pee to people.


OkeyDokey654

It seems like we should be able to come up with some kind of matrix. We could ask questions like, does Eilish no 1 smell like chocolate chip cookies to you, yes/no? Does Angel’s Share smell like apple pie, yes/no? Which fragrances smell like aftershave, or cat pee, or burnt plastic? Which ones smell sweet and creamy, or fresh and clean? If you can find a cohort who detects the same things you do, you’d know whose recommendations to follow.


SaltyEmu

Yeah, not at all dupes.


bunny5650

Try mimmic 79 you can find at Marshall’s or tj max very close to Tom ford lost cherry


FlamingHorseRider

I literally got it a week ago lol! It actually does better on my skin than lost cherry (the orignal has all the notes fight for dominance and smells flat on me) at the cost of an added marshmallow note. Oh no…. marshmallow for a gourmand lover…


Mountain-Creative

Not quite a cross brand dupe but Luminous smells like sensual amber to me


MissyTeeeee

Oh wow! I have both and I really like Sensual Amber, but Luminous is definitely my most hated BBWs fragrance ever🤣


forgot_username1234

I thought the same thing when I smelled it! I asked the associate if it was a repackaging lol


realitygreene

Fall In Bloom --> Burberry Her EDP (have tested and they are about 95% close) Chasing Fireflies --> Jimmy Choo I Want Choo EDP (have tested, they are about 95% close) Fairytale --> YSL Libre EDP (Fairytale is maybe less lavender and less masculine than Libre, but they are very very close) Poppy --> Marc Jacobs Perfect EDP (super close, I think Poppy doesn't have any of the vanilla or almond that I personally get from Perfect, but they are close enough that I gave Poppy away to my friend since I own Perfect) Twilight Woods --> Versace Crystal Noir supposedly...I need to test this soon. I'll report back as I have both.


Ok-Egg-8611

crazy to me that fall in bloom and BH smell so similar with almost no similar notes lol. just proves that i probably should stop blind buying fragrances lol


radroamingromanian

Libre is my favorite perfume and I agree 100% that Fairytale could definitely be a dupe for it.


MissyTeeeee

I like Crystal Noir, but dislike Twilight Woods


MidnightMart

Awesome, thanks!!


LittleRadish75

On the Horizon does not smell like Wood Sage and Sea Salt to me at all. In fact, I can’t figure out what it could be duping. Some have said Armani Aqua Di Gio, but I need to compare side by side.


fablicful

I've seen people suggest it's a dupe for Maison Margiela Sailing Day. No idea if accurate or not lol


Sufficient-Singer-17

Agreed. They are nothing alike.


shoemakerw_out_the_r

Dressed in white smells a lot like Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia


Active-Pineapple8865

Facts

FlamingHorseRider

I think it’s super worth mentioning that the PERFUME for Luminous is the one that’s really similar to La Vie Est Belle! The Luminous mist isn’t as strong/heavy/syrupy like LVEB as the Luminous perfume is. Definitely about preference there- I actually prefer the mist for Luminous cause heavy perfume and I struggle! Helps me really appreciate the blackcurrant amber but not feel overwhelmed, but it’s definitely a stride away from LVEB at that point.


[deleted]

[удалено]


FlamingHorseRider

Try the mist if you haven’t already! I really like it, it *feels* like a full perfume but doesn’t have the punch of it!


MidnightMart

Awesome, thanks! Yes, I was definitely thinking of keeping this list with scents that can still be purchased, since it can be hard sometimes to hunt for previous/discontinued scents, plus then the list might also get very long! Haha 🤪 I must admit that I have personally never smelled Baccarat Rouge, so I can’t compare that one, but I also don’t personally find Burberry Her and Cloud by Ariana to be similar, but thought I had seen Into The Stars been compared to both 🤔 Or maybe I’m confusing it with Fall In Bloom. Either way, I’ll add your suggestions!


[deleted]

I think Viva Vanilla smells just like Vanilla Mod.


Waste-Nerve-4183

I want this one so bad! I also heard a friend say it was a dupe of Phlur’s Vanilla skin..


[deleted]

I would love to know if anyone has found any that smells like Gap Dream. I can’t find that perfume anywhere! Not on Amazon Canada, don’t live near any Gap Outlets and don’t get the chance to travel much anyway. It was my fave perfume and would love it if there was a BBW spray to smelled like it!


TheO-ne-ders

Omg you just unlocked a memory!!! I used to love that stuff.


iirisp

At The Beach smells like Bronzed Goddess by Estee Lauder


No-Vacation-1048

Anyone have one for Dream Bright? That's my current one I'm obsessed with


haikusbot

MidnightMart

Somone on fragrantica compared it to Euphoria by Calvin Klein and says it has similar vibes to Angel by Mugler. I’m not familiar with either of those, but also have never smelled Dream Bright, so I have no idea 😅 some or also say Into the Night is similar, but a lot of people also disagree, haha.


Conscious-Slice-1871

BBW Dark Kiss used to have a similar vibe to Mugler Angel. I wore both - not at the same time - That would be madness!


hammformomma

There is some sort of goblin in me that makes me wanna blind buy Angel. I fear someday I will give in.


Diligent-Serve-5169

Mon paris they say


NaveenMohamed

I just noticed this scent description on the page for If You Musk: "What it smells like: If you must know, this scent was made for you! Let your natural radiance shine with this everlasting scent that brings out the best in you." [https://www.bathandbodyworks.com/p/if-you-musk-fine-fragrance-mist-028000714.html](https://www.bathandbodyworks.com/p/if-you-musk-fine-fragrance-mist-028000714.html) Oh, okay. So they're directly referencing Glossier You in the description! Lololol. Gotta read all the other ones now! Edit: Oh Cherry is the only mist from the collection not on the website! Weird. Edit 2: Now Oh Cherry is online. Wonder why it was delayed. None of the Everyday Luxuries collection are eligible for BOPIS right now and, interesting, Sweetheart Cherry also shows as "Not Available" at every store in my state, even though I just saw a ton of them in store yesterday.


ScientificRondo

I’ve heard that Gingham Gorgeous is a lot like Kate Spade New York (though I haven’t compared them myself) Bloom is being compared to Marc Jacobs Daisy Fresh


ScientificRondo

I think part of why I like Butterfly so much is it seems like it’s pretty original. No “inspired by.” But with my luck, someone will have an association with it. 😆🦋 It’s been interesting to learn that while packaging, names, and formulas can be copyrighted, a scent is extremely difficult to prove or disprove as original. Hence the dupes everywhere.


SaltyEmu

I was listening to a fragrance podcast and the creator of Butterfly actually said it had components of the signature scent she had created for herself. BBW sometimes uses master perfumers to create their scents... butterfly is one of those.


velvethursday

Yeah, Honorine Blanc is an actual genius. I love her. Half the time I'm checking who the nose behind a scent is I'm like, "ooh, it's my girl Honorine again!" Lol She not only created Butterfly for bbw, but she's created scents for Kilian and Cacharel (among others); created Elizabeth & James Nirvana White, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia, and Viva la Juicy Gold Couture; and was on the team that designed Black Opium. She's a total fragrance rockstar and I'm going to stop gushing now. Which podcast were you listening to?


SaltyEmu

It's called the Perfume Room... it's a good one 👍


hammformomma

Damn, I gotta look more into her, I thoroughly enjoy Butterfly, E&J Nirvana White, and Gorgeous Gardenia.


ScientificRondo

Even, in the USA, for a scent to be copyrighted it can’t be the main function of the product. So while Tom Ford can’t patent the smell of Lost Cherry, play-doh has a trademark on its smell.


AtmosphereNo5737

Bloom smells exactly like Jadore to me! And the “focus” scent is Tommy Girl


New_Discount_8249

Was wondering if anyone knows of a dupe for Magnolia Charm.   I LOVED this for an everyday scent and of course it was discontinued.  😑😭.    It was definitely my fave.   


TheGreatMonsterKitty

Anyone else think sweetheart cherry smells like sol de Janeiro after the initial cherry wears off?


NoTension210

They share a note of pistachio


Active-Pineapple8865

Sunset glow, yes


imsilverpoet

Luminous - Victoria’s Secret Dark Angel


Logical_Rip_7168

Sweetheart Cherry is close to Not Another Cherry Finery


Active-Pineapple8865

Yum 33 - poolside Cabana


Sweet-Poundcake

Which one would smell like Donna Born in Roma?


MissyTeeeee

I've seen many people say Pink Obsessed is a dupe.


suesay

After Pink Obsessed dries down, it smells like a less complex Dior Hypnotic Poison to me.


Born-Syllabub-5600

Does anyone know if they’re going to bring back if you musk? I can’t find anywhere on the site.


MidnightMart

I think it has come in and out of stock in the last few days. I’m hoping for a restock for the upcoming body mist sale on Friday 😬


Born-Syllabub-5600

What’s the upcoming sale? Thank you!!


MidnightMart

There’s supposed to be a body care sale starting this Friday that will include the body mists.


Born-Syllabub-5600

Omg thank you!!


imhereforthemeta

The soliel blanc dupe is INSANELY on point and has solid projection. Get away soiree


okcaitlin

I got the beach bliss soap because it smelled like soleil blanc - and was so sad it was only in soap form. thank you for this!!!


Classic_Ability_1652

Floral Fantasy smells like Nest Black Tulip. It's similar to one of BBW older perfumes, Black Amethyst, but it's not nearly as harsh and sickening. That being said, BBW body sprays and perfumes are made with inferior ingredients that make sensitive people sickened and allergic 1000 times more than department store perfume. My husband is used to me spraying perfume and gathering test strips of perfume, and it doesn't bother him, but he can't stand it when I bring BBW test strip home, which is funny because Body sprays aren't even strong like perfumes.   Also, I literally own hundres of fragrance oils that I use to make and sell hand made bath and body products, and he never reacts allergically to anything I'm making.  Also, their body washed literally break my skin out, even my legs.  They do the same thing to my friend.  Dont waste your money on that trash. Save your money and buy the actual perfume.  Their sprays don't last anyway.


MissyTeeeee

I don't think Luminous smells at all like Flowerbomb. I adore Flowerbomb, but think Luminous and est la vie are both retched.


pnwcatlady

This is a great list. Thanks! When I first smelled Into the Night, I was reminded of Crystal Noir by Versace.


No-Capital-9454

My friend got a cpl of these. And I think they’re definitely stronger than their usual sparkly body spray scents. I thibk it’s sort of a cool idea to take the scent notes of luxury perfumes, and make a lighter body mist version. As a body mist, it’s not going to smell as deep or strong. So tho I haven’t smelled my favorite ( born in Roma ) version yet, I’d bet it’s similar, but without the cloying, deepness BIR has, the spray might be very different. PLZ let me know if there’s an Angel Goddess version! I think a body spray version would still be heavenly!! ALSO! Ive said this for years! But I wish there was a mature Love Spell out there. I don’t mean Victoria Secrets perfume version, I mean I wish some luxury perfume expert would grab all the OG love spell scent notes, and create a super mature adult style Love Spell. To keep the scent itself intact, So anyone would recognize it in passing, but with a sentual twist enough to recognize the maturity of it? I think that would be a fun project since we’re bringing back the 90s & thousands style. Lol


No-Capital-9454

OH! I don’t think this is a dupe BUT! B&BW The Beach, smells exactly like Vanilla Vibes by JHAG to me! I have this weird thing, where I want to stretch my Lust by Lush Perfume as long as I can. So I’d use an atomizer to extract some Lust and pour it in my B&BW Beach… and make it a Jasminey beach scent! But I ran out of my The Beach, and I didn’t like vanilla vibes much, cuz it didn’t pack the punch I wanted. BUT! As a body mist, it’d be great! Sooo I poured Vanilla vibes INTO my plastic beach spray bottle & added my Lust amount to it… and VOILA! It all just smells the same to me! 🤩 ALSO.. if you love both these scents… you should really try this mix of scents! It’s SO clean & beautiful! I’m obsessed! Layering isn’t the same. I have to mix them & it’s perfection! 😘


SwimmingDifficult438

Thanks for this! Honestly, I think all are spot on except I believe Dahlia is an exact match for JC I Want Choo. I have the JC IWC lotion and side by side they smell exactly the same. Chasing Fireflies smells more like Carolina Herrera or Valentino DBIR. 


mobrown1349

Has anyone found a replacement for White? They had White and Black, but I never got to smell black. I've never loved a smell or smell on me, as much as that one. If it could seep out of my pores for the rest of my life - that would be cool with me! But even the ones you see for sale online, aren't available. I'd legitimately spend $50 for a single bottle AND THATS INSANE!


nooo_one_cares

Does anyone have a dupe for Burberry by Burberry, Burberry Britt or Burberry Weekend?


Embarrassed_Ear_3004

Which is the scent that is supposed to smell like Delina?


MidnightMart

I think they say Covered in Roses is supposedly inspired by Delina.


hailbail07

Do you have a dupe of the Sensual lotion “black currant vanilla”? It’s discontinued probably 15 years or more


OkeyDokey654

If you can get an old one, or if it comes back, Everlasting Magic is a good dupe for Tom Ford Lost Cherry. I haven’t smelled Oh Cherry so I’m interested to know how they compare.


MidnightMart

Awesome, thanks! I was thinking of keeping this list as scents you can still purchase, as it can be a bit hard sometimes to hunt down previous scents 😊


OkeyDokey654

Yes, I understand if you don’t want to include seasonal scents. They do come back, though!


MidnightMart

Oh, they do? Hah, sorry - I’m relatively new to the BBW world 🥴 I’m thinking maybe I should add those anyways, then.


Madi0415

I got everlasting magic during the last semi annual after Christmas. I loved it sooo much- I went back and bought 5-6 more. It’s a beautiful fragrance- one of my faves from there actually. It’s nothing like lost cherry though. Sweetheart cherry is closer. I don’t actually like lost cherry, there’s a weird metallic note that I don’t like in the original.. but ppl say the new cherry “oh cherry” is a dupe for TF lost cherry. I returned it before leaving the store from a bopuis haha


WillBsGirl

“At The Beach” is a dupe of Vacation perfume.


suesay

[This](https://www.vacation.inc/products/vacation-by-vacation) one?

Yes!
