Aqua Celestia has one match so far. These are the closest scents by shared notes that have several.
Bergamot and grapefruit hit clean and sharp in the opening — bright, slightly tart, more like squeezed citrus peel than a candy interpretation. The heart softens that edge with white tea, pulling it toward a cool, faintly mineral quietness that reads almost aquatic without leaning salty. Cedarwood and white musk carry the dry-down: pale, skin-close, genuinely clean rather than soapy. Projection is modest throughout; this wears like a second skin rather than announcing itself across a room, with soft sillage that lingers without demanding attention — Made for warm weather and office settings, or anyone who wants to smell freshly showered without smelling like a product.

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.
