The one match we list is Dua Fragrances True Self, from $33. Nobody has scored it for us yet, so we show no numbers.
Every pairing shows where it comes from and how far we trust it.
Dua Fragrances sells True Self on its own product page as “Inspiration: MYSLF Eau de Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent” — the same pink-pepper-orange-blossom-ambrofix woody profile in a 34ml extrait. Manufacturer-stated and matched to the MYSLF EDP (Dua sells the L’Absolu flanker separately as True Self Absolute); no community score evidence yet, so no score is shown.
What is missing: any report of how close it smells or how long it lasts. We would rather show no score than invent one.

Myself has one match so far. These are the closest scents by shared notes that have several.
Opens with a brisk pink pepper snap that softens quickly into a creamy, powdery heart where iris and almond dominate — the combination reads almost edible but stays grounded by peony's clean floral lift. The dry-down settles into warm sandalwood anchored by amber and musk, smooth and skin-close without much projection. Sillage is modest; this is a personal-space fragrance rather than a room-filler. The sweetness is consistent throughout without tipping into cloying territory — a careful, polished balance — Ideal for cooler months, office environments, or anyone who wants something quietly feminine and approachable without demanding attention.

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.
