Best Giorgio Armani Dupes

Giorgio Armani alternatives, clones, and replicas — community-scored.

Catalog refreshed May 2026

Giorgio Armani's Acqua di Gio is one of the most-cloned masculine fragrances ever made, and the wider line — Acqua di Gioia, the Profumo flankers and Code — anchors a deep dupe catalog led by Lattafa, Dossier and Zara. Below are the 24 highest-rated dupes across 9 Giorgio Armani fragrances, grouped by the original. Every score is sourced from aggregated community consensus on Reddit r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones, and Fragrantica — accuracy and longevity rated separately, never averaged. We take no brand deals.
