Inspired-By Comparison
Compare All Alternatives
Every clone rated on similarity and performance. Oils and sprays are priced on separate lines, because a millilitre of oil is not a millilitre of spray.
Oil is undiluted, so a millilitre of oil holds several times more fragrance than a millilitre of spray. Each format is ranked on its own.

Each line shows one size: a 50ml spray (30ml, or the nearest size, when the vendor has no 50ml) and the oil closest to 10ml. Vendors also sell other sizes, including samples and bulk.
Prices are converted to your selected currency at recent exchange rates. Vendors bill in their own currency, so the amount you are charged may differ slightly.

About the Original
About Al Haramain Perfumes Amber Oud
The fragrance these clones are inspired by.
Released in 2018, Amber Oud from Al Haramain Perfumes arrived amid a wave of amber-oud releases that blended Middle Eastern resinous accords with fresher citrus openings. Marketed for both women and men, it reads as a woody-amber composition where bergamot and lemon lift an aromatic rosemary-cedar opening into a spicy, guaiac-wood heart and a base of amber, resins and musk. The scent leans heavily woody and amber with clear aromatic and spicy facets, and listener response is split: many voters have ranked it highly, while a notable minority find its character or synthetic edge off-putting.
Our take
I like the core idea here: a sweet, resinous amber with cedar and spice that can work for evening wear, but the name overpromises, I barely detect oud. Community votes mirror my view: plenty of fans, yet some people report a harsh synthetic turn or wildly different longevity. On my skin it sits medium-close with decent projection for a few hours; it never becomes the bold, leathered oud some expect. If you want affordable amber-woody warmth, try a sample first.
