Contre Moi has one match so far. These are the closest scents by shared notes that have several.
Opens with bright bergamot and lemon that settle quickly into a soft, creamy floral heart — magnolia and orange blossom carry most of the weight here, with rose staying quiet in the background and pear adding a subtle sweetness rather than any real fruitiness. The dry-down is where it earns its reputation: vanilla and cacao pull things warm and skin-close, gourmand without being edible. Projection is moderate, sillage intimate. It doesn't announce itself — it lingers near the wearer. — Best for cooler spring days or early fall evenings; suits someone who wants warmth without heaviness.

Dupes are rated on two independent dimensions: scent accuracy (how closely it matches the original) and longevity (how long it lasts on skin). Scores come from owner reports on Reddit r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones and Fragrantica, and each is marked community-scored, provisional or not scored. They are never averaged into a single number — accuracy and longevity are separate decisions.
