How we rank, and why this isn't a dupe list
We rank by a weighted overlap of dominant accords (50% of the score), shared notes across all pyramid positions (30%), and shared base notes specifically (20%). Base notes carry weight because they drive what you smell hours into the wear.
But shared ingredients don't guarantee identical smell. Two fragrances can list the same notes and still smell completely different. The perfumer's ratios, the materials they sourced, and the supporting molecules all change the result. That's why we split this page into two sections.
Verified Clones are fragrances our community has explicitly mapped to Vanille Sauvage de Madagascar in our Clone Lab. These are the only picks on this page we'd call true smell-alikes. The Same Family picks share its note structure but should be treated as "if you like Vanille Sauvage de Madagascar, you may like..." rather than direct dupes.
