How long does your perfume last?

DUA fragrance is made to last up to 6-8 hours, sometimes even better than originals.

Why is your inspired scent more affordable compared to the original luxury scent?

Our inspired fragrance is budget-friendly because we skip the luxury brand markups and fancy packaging that come with the original. Instead, we focus on what really matters...the juice inside the bottle.

Is your inspired fragrance safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, our inspired fragrances are safe to use. We prioritize using high-quality, skin-safe ingredients. However, we recommend a patch test before full application if you have sensitive skin.

Where can I buy your inspired fragrances?

You can purchase our inspired and original fragrances directly from our website: <a href="https://theduabrand.com/">www.TheDuaBrand.com</a>

Is your fragrance cruelty-free and vegan?

Absolutely! Our fragrance is proudly crafted to be both cruelty-free and vegan.

Where can I send my fragrance requests?

You can email us your fragrance requests for Original Blends, Inspirations and Hybrids to: <a href="mailto:creators@theduabrand.com">Creators@theduabrand.com</a>

What are the ingredients used in the fragrance oil?

The main ingredients used in our fragrances are: Alcohol Denat, Aqua (Water), Parfum (Fragrances), Citral, Citronellol, Coumarin, Eugenol, Farnesol, Geraniol, Limonene, Hydroxycitronellal, Isoeugenol, Linalool, 4-Hydroxyisohexyl-3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde, Alpha-Isomethyl, Ionone.

How does Jazz compare to similar fragrances?

It shares the lounge-like warmth of Replica Jazz, while also appealing to those who enjoy Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford or the textural depth found in Le Labo creations. As a Maison Margiela Jazz Club dupe, it feels smoother and more intimate than many louder tobacco perfumes.

FAQ FAQ

What is the meaning of life? Philosophers have pondered this question for as long as we’ve had sentience and the ability to think. However, we haven’t even come close to a tangible answer. For the time being, instead of interrogating life, let’s just enjoy it! This is what Nishane’s Mana is all about! This leather fragrance opens with an abundance of spices, which includes ginger, cardamom, saffron, and black pepper. The heart of rose is exotic and sensuous while the base of resins and precious woods is expensive and endearing. The overall effect is one of luxury and opulence. Meaning of Life is our inspired expression of this very expensive perfume by Nishane, and you don’t have to be a philosopher to enjoy all of the charm and regality that this fragrance has to offer!

Another Winner I have Nishane Ani - not sure if its a love, maybe a like. This is much more within my scent profile with the cardamom, rose, sandalwood and patchouli showing up nicely on my skin. Very beautiful! (and not as big & bold as Ani) After a few minutes I get some pepper which is really nice too. I will be enjoying this one all throughout the fall/winter.

the fragrances are incredible, but the delivery time is too long, I hope they find a solution to this

Spicy and very strong out of the bottle. Opening is rich and makes a statement with all Four Top Notes present and prominent. Other notes working in the background. As it transitions I can pick up the rose and the woods, resins, and musky/animalic shine. Good projection, beast mode longevity, 10+. IMHO, this is an alpha male scent. I love and respect the house of Nishane, and Dua has offered a flattering inspiration. The way this frag is put together, and this might sound a little crazy, to me it's almost like Nishane huddled with Amouage and Roja to get these notes to work in harmony--and it works!. I love this Dua and very glad I picked it up. It's at least three season and I'm going to try it (lightly) this summer as well. NOT a safe blind buy for a novice or the fresh / blue crowd. IF you love niche quality and like oriental and leather, then check it out. You won't be disappointed.

For the love of leather This fragrance is absolutely to die for. It is so well blended i cannot discern any particular note. But it is complex and sultry without being heavy or dark. It lit up my space & time continuum with just one spray. Projection is stellar. Sillage is lovely. I have never smelled the original so i cannot speak to that. But let me tell you.. this is truly amazing. I want to say this has inspired me to go and try the OG but every time I do that, I am let down and prefer DUA's version. So maybe i will, maybe I won't. But what I will do, is allow this fragrance to seduce me, myself and I + any of those lucky enough to be left sniffing in my wake. Buy this. Buy this now. You absolutely will not regret it, if the notes are in your wheel house. Heck, even if they are not. I absolutely cannot think of a single reason why someone wouldnt love this. This takes the DUA cake and will now reign supreme as my very favorite. Thank you to Mahsam and his team. Knocked it out of the park with this one!
