22: A Dupe-ious Discussion
Episode description
The beauty world is full of dupes galore and for good reason: shit's expensive. But when it comes to fragrance, dupes are on a whole 'nother level— namely, that they are generally shameless about the fact that they are knocking off another designer fragrance. No perfume is too precious to mimic at a lower price point (and concentration)! Naturally, your hosts have fEeLiNgS about the matter. Also, it turns out, so do you. Consider this episode a semi-roundtable discussion of what constitutes a dupe, how do they get away with it, and are they "hurting" the fragrance industry? Also, what's with all these new DTC Warby Parker-wannabe fragrance brands that have us repeatedly stationed in the crosshairs of their targeted ads? Hmm. Hm hm hmm...
[Fragrances mentioned: Valentino Uomo Born in Roma, Thierry Mugler Angel]
