Some of the most popular niche perfumes that sell for $200 to $600 are often made for less than $25

While researching perfume dupes, I unexpectedly discovered a perfumer, Jean-Luc Dubois, living in France and realized that some of the most popular perfumes with the highest prices on the market are often made for less than $25.

Perfume Industry Secrets Revealed: The Shocking Truth About Cost and Marketing

"It's "funny" how we bottle their perfumes and ours. We pour from the same production line into their bottles and boxes, adding a $200-$600 price tag, and then pour the same perfume into our different box, label, and bottle, selling it for a fair price of $35. 

 

From $600 to $35 for the same perfume? It's a big difference for the same quality. 

 

Don't you feel cheated?

 

Did you know that perfumes selling for $200 to $600 often cost less than $25 to make? The luxury prices are a complete fabrication. Big brands use clever marketing, million-dollar influencer contracts, insider deals, and inflated costs to deceive you. 

 

They even use the same our factories in France, just with different bottles and packaging.

 

These corporations spend millions on advertisements to make you believe their stories. It’s time for us to reveal the truth."

— says Jean-Luc Dubois

I bought all these perfumer dupes and compared them. The shocking truth: they’re identical.

As I uncovered in my research, perfumer Jean-Luc Dubois revealed that the same high-quality ingredients are used in all high-end perfumes.

 

According to Dubois, “The only difference is the price and packaging. The industry tricks consumers into paying hundreds for what costs just a fraction to produce, with top influencers promoting it as a symbol of exclusivity.”

A Game-Changer in Fragrance: Luxe Dupes Starting at $29

Designer-inspired perfumes for a fair price

 

 

Jean-Luc's brand, Emerald Parfums, is revolutionizing the world of high-end scents with affordable luxury dupes. 

 

Along with a few family members, he established his own hand-crafted perfume factory in Grasse.

 

After unveiling the shocking truths about the perfume market and launching his brand online, people began purchasing his hand-crafted perfumes like crazy.

 

Word spread quickly, and now his products are almost always sold out.

 

Emerald Parfums offers these same luxurious scents, starting at just $29, providing a remarkable dupe for a fraction of the cost.

Their look, design, and presentation are next level. I haven’t seen such a beautiful brand in a long time.

Luxury Without the Price Tag
 

Emerald Parfums brings you all the sophistication of high-end fragrances without the inflated price. Each scent is crafted with high-quality ingredients and meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that you enjoy the elegance of premium perfumes at an accessible price. It’s not just a fragrance; it’s a smart choice for savvy shoppers.

By cutting through the industry’s extravagant markups, Emerald Parfums offers true luxury without the hefty price tag. Jean-Luc Dubois and his team are setting a new standard, proving that you can experience the essence of high-end fragrances for just $29.

 

His influencers? The clients themselves. People from all over the world are spreading the word and choosing his brand's perfumes through their own recommendations.

 

Even when I first tested it, I immediately recommended it to my friends and family because  these are the best dupes I have found on the market  - and believe me, I have tested thousands.

This Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Dupe

Emerald Parfums Red Silk

Hello affordable!

The best BR540 dupe I’ve ever smelled.

The O.G.: Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum, a complex mix of woody, floral, spicy, and sweet notes, MFK540 is one of the most decadent scents of all time (and a Team FINESSE favorite).

 

Ahhh yes, the classic Baccarat Rouge 540. Anyone who knows anything about perfume is familiar with this bad boy. It’s gone viral numerous times on TikTok with 800 million views and counting. 

 

Few fragrance houses can compare to the unique, intricately layered scent that features a blend of spicy saffron, bright orange blossom, alluring jasmine, warm amber, and grounding cedar…that is, except for Emerald.

 

Out of all of the Emerald Impressions I tried—and tested on my very lucky friends, lol—every single person guessed that Ambery Saffron was the real BR540 (!!!). I've tested basically every Baccarat Rouge 540 dupe out there, and this wins out on top every time. Not to brag, but my expert nose picked up one *slight* difference between the two: Emerald’s powerful top notes of saffron and orange blossom linger much longer than in the original. 

  • Key notes: Saffron, orange blossom, jasmine, plum cedarwood, oakmoss, fir balsam, amber
  • Scent category: Warm gourmand

Glowing customer review: “I receive compliments all the time. People who have the original even ask if I'm wearing Baccarat Rouge 540. Love it.”

This YSL Black Opium Dupe

Emerald Parfums Night Out, Pheromone Perfume

The O.G.: YSL Black Opium Eau de Parfum, a warm gourmand that combines notes of white flowers, coffee, and vanilla.

Black Opium is one of the most delicious (and perhaps one of the most well-known) designer fragrances of all time. Any time I wear it, men flock to me—heck, women even stop me on the street to ask what I’m wearing. It’s simply one of those universally loved fragrances that gets hella compliments.

 

Night Out Perfume Pheromone offers the same irresistible scent as YSL Black Opium, featuring rich notes of coffee and vanilla. But it stands out because it’s infused with pheromones, designed to enhance your natural allure and increase your appeal. Perfect for making a memorable impression. 

Because it has pheromones, I definitely choose Emerald.

  • Key notes: Mandarin, pear, pink pepper, licorice, tuberose, daffodil, cedarwood, patchouli, vanilla, coffee
  • Scent category: Warm Gourmand

Glowing customer review: “Great dupe! Get so many compliments on this scent, I would say it’s definitely a night, winter/fall scent. It’s very sexy and sweet with a hint of coffee. One of my favorites!”

This Kilian Angel Share Dupe

The O.G.: Kilian Angel Share Eau de Parfum
A luxurious warm gourmand with notes of cognac, cinnamon, and vanilla. 

 

It’s Queen B’s favorite perfume, celebrated for its rich, sweet allure that garners constant compliments.

 

Emerald Velvet Mood delivers an almost identical scent profile, perfectly capturing the essence of Kilian Angel Share.

I think I love this version even more, as it offers enhanced sillage and warmth.

  • Key notes: Cognac, cinnamon, vanilla
  • Scent category: Warm Gourmand

Customer review: “Great dupe! It’s a cozy, sweet scent with a hint of spice. I get tons of compliments!”

This Parfums De Marly Delina Dupe

Emerald Parfums Femme

The O.G.: Parfums de Marly Delina Renowned for its intricate blend of Turkish rose, peony, and lychee, Parfums de Marly Delina is not only a luxurious favorite but also one of the most popular perfumes in the world, epitomizing elegance and femininity.

 

Emerald Parfums Femme captures this exquisite scent perfectly, offering the same lush floral aroma at a fraction of the cost. 

 

I adore everything about this dupe; surprisingly, it even boasts greater longevity and stronger sillage than the original—I'm not sure how they achieved it, but it's impressive.

 

For now, it will be my first choice among all perfumes. I can't believe I'm opting for a dupe over the original.

  • Key notes: Turkish rose, peony, lychee
  • Scent category: Floral

Customer review: “It's just like Delina. Emerald Parfums Femme is a very luxurious and feminine scent. I discovered it during a trip to France when a friend recommended it. Absolutely love it!”

This Tom Ford Lost Cherry Dupe

Honestly, with my hand on my heart, I couldn't tell the difference. To me, they are identical.
