Scandal has one match so far. These are the closest scents by shared notes that have several.
Bergamot opens things with a citrus snap that doesn't linger — it hands off quickly to a lush, creamy floral heart where tuberose and gardenia do most of the heavy lifting, supported by orange blossom adding a honeyed edge. The whole thing feels polished and deliberately indulgent without tipping into headache territory. Dry-down settles into warm amber wrapped in soft sandalwood and a skin-close musk that keeps sillage intimate but persistent. Projection is moderate, not a room-announcer — it works as a signature trail rather than a statement. — Best suited for date nights, evening outings, or anyone who wants a confident floral-amber that skews romantic and grown-up across spring through fall.

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.
No. The Scent File takes no brand deals, no sponsorships, and no paid rankings. Rankings follow the scores only. We do earn affiliate commission when you purchase through our links at no extra cost to you — but this never influences which dupes appear or how they are scored.
