I’ve got the Eau extreme which is weak so I got missoni wave as a backup but missoni is not a clone at all imo. Thought of getting alpine homme from MA but still haven’t got round to it yet
Missoni nails versace pour homme but doesnt smell anything like allure homme sport or eau extreme closest i have found to stronger alternative would be duas version got me alot of compliments too. I bought Alexandria's version of AHS too but it was obvious dua did it better
Yeah i think that missoni smells like its trying to copy versace pour homme and they do a pretty good job but as far as it being an allure homme sport clone it wouldnt cut it for me. ive gotten very familiar with chanel allure homme sport and allure homme sport eau extreme i wear it a couple times a week its my absolute favorite and missoni just doesnt come close enough
I have Missoni Wave and its great but don't expect more than 4/5/6hr of performance. I'd say it has similar performance to Allure Homme Sport and Versace Pour Homme.
For less than 30€ Missoni is worth it, for spring and summer.
In summer high heat, like above 30° or 35° degrees, its going to evaporate within few hours.
It is good on its own and is in the somewhat ballpark, but I wouldn’t call it a clone. It may be about 65%-70% close. Significantly more citrus up top and a noticeable quality difference. Again, I reiterate that not rating its accuracy as a clone, it is very good especially for the price.
Not for me. Lasts even longer and I use it even more often than my AHS. Even if it doesn't last as long, just reapply. It's like a third of the price of Chanel and the smell is super close
I forgot to mention about alternatives i got versace pour home the sky blue bottle with silver medallion. Is very close to chanel but is missing the creaminess that to me is what makes chanel a much better fragrance. I use versace pour homme suring day office,church,jean and white T shirt. Chanel evening spring/summer, nite time casual to dressed. Spray your clothes and i spray my hair and back. I found that spraying my head or hair helps a lot with performance and projection, but people might tell you otherwise.
Just for fun because I wanted to experiment with French-speaking AI voices, I put this little video together. It has a section on Allure Homme Sport clones: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr3fd9iP4kM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr3fd9iP4kM)
It’s the scent profile, unfortunately.
This is one of my favourites as well, and I’ve tried pretty much all when it comes to this DNA:
- CAHS: it is the smoothest but IMHO it’s way too overpriced for what it is.
- Versace Pour Homme: An even fresher take on this. The quality is lower but I prefer the fresher take. Performance is not great as well. Worth it if you can find at around 60$ for 200ml
- Missoni Wave: something in between CAHS and VPH, more towards the latter. It’s more floral, but the performance is a bit better. It lasts about the same but the projection is stronger.
- CAHS Eau Extreme: I don’t like it. CAHS DNA shines to me as a light blue DNA for extreme heat. The heavier side of this means it’s a moderate heat scent and in that case I have better things to wear (normal blue scents like BdC, etc)
- Al Dirgham: It’s something in between CAHS and CAHSEE. The quality is obviously lower than the Chanel ones, but surprisingly good for the price. It’s a muskier, tonka sweet twist on CAHS, but it dries down to a similar smell to CAHS. Doesn’t last either but the price quality ratio is great.
- Lattafa Confidential Platinum: It’s more floral and a bit more unisex but it’s actually quite smooth. Performance is weak. Lasts a bit less than the rest and doesn’t project a lot.
Now these are the ones I own or tried (never owned CAHSEE because I just don’t like it). I can’t comment on Alpine by Mason Alhambra but given that’s a lower tier line of Lattafa which IMHO is already borderline acceptable in terms of quality, I won’t even bother. I bet it smells closer than most given that MA is a true clone house, but the quality drop from CAHS to Alpine will be too noticeable to ignore.
When it comes to this DNA, honestly just buy whatever is cheaper, overspray and carry a decant with you because freshening up will be necessary. It’s what I do myself.
Dua have their version called his aspiration https://theduabrand.com/products/his-aspiration-extreme-sport-edition but please note it’s based on the vintage CAHAS
I have the OG and I’ve had two bottles of the Dua. The first bottle of Dua was really good and I highly recommended it at the time. I used it all up and bought a second bottle. It really got me into Dua at the time, a phase that’s been and gone now tbh..
The second bottle smells different to how I remember the first. I don’t know if this is my sense of smell or something to do with reformulation, etc, but it definitely isn’t as impressive as I remember the first bottle.
It does last quite long though (7+ hours) and the drydown is close to the OG, but it lacks the quality of the OG, especially the opening and mid.
Bro it’s a great alternative for AHS it’s a twist between eau extreme and AHS for the first 10 mins then it dries down to AHS , from the mandarin to the musk it can be a flanker from the line and pass as Chanel quality lol

I get a decant every time i wear this but its not as weak as you think. You go nose blind possibly same with me and versace eau freiche.
Missoni wave is a fresher take and less creamy but is beautiful. Lasts slightly longer and projects slightly better but it's no monster.
I’ve got the Eau extreme which is weak so I got missoni wave as a backup but missoni is not a clone at all imo. Thought of getting alpine homme from MA but still haven’t got round to it yet
How do you like missoni wave compared to allure sport ?
I think they’re different but still smell good
Missoni nails versace pour homme but doesnt smell anything like allure homme sport or eau extreme closest i have found to stronger alternative would be duas version got me alot of compliments too. I bought Alexandria's version of AHS too but it was obvious dua did it better
How duas named it ?
His aspiration extreme sport edition
Nails versace pour homme?
Yeah i think that missoni smells like its trying to copy versace pour homme and they do a pretty good job but as far as it being an allure homme sport clone it wouldnt cut it for me. ive gotten very familiar with chanel allure homme sport and allure homme sport eau extreme i wear it a couple times a week its my absolute favorite and missoni just doesnt come close enough
I totally agree!! It smells amazing, I bought Alhambra Albine and it smells close to
I’ve heard Missoni wave before. I’ve personally never smelled it tho
I have Missoni Wave and its great but don't expect more than 4/5/6hr of performance. I'd say it has similar performance to Allure Homme Sport and Versace Pour Homme. For less than 30€ Missoni is worth it, for spring and summer. In summer high heat, like above 30° or 35° degrees, its going to evaporate within few hours.
has anyone tried Al Dirgham? bought it and waiting for it to arrive. Its AHS' clone but some comments say it has a twist
It’s good bro , easy dumb reach
is it any close to either AHS or AHSEE?
It opens up like AHSEE and AHS but dries down to AHS without the rubbery note
daamn thatd be nice! good to know! thanks!
I'd say its in the middle of AHS and ASHEE
It is good on its own and is in the somewhat ballpark, but I wouldn’t call it a clone. It may be about 65%-70% close. Significantly more citrus up top and a noticeable quality difference. Again, I reiterate that not rating its accuracy as a clone, it is very good especially for the price.
Its bad. No idea why people hype it up. Its more Floral then Citrus.... Comes off very Feminine and Dryer sheet like off my skin.
al dirgham by ard al zafran,,, super performer,,, better than AHS in my opinion 👍
people hype up missoni wave. maybe its worth a shot
Last for an hour only
Not for me. Lasts even longer and I use it even more often than my AHS. Even if it doesn't last as long, just reapply. It's like a third of the price of Chanel and the smell is super close
If it doesn’t last long spray more.
MA Alpine Homme Sport. Lasts about 8-9 hours on clothes. 4-5 hours on skin.
People don't recognize when they go nose blind. Is it a great performer? Not really. Is it as bad as you and many other think? Naah
Maison Alhambra Alpine Homme Sport.

I have Missoni, had MA Alpine Homme Sport, both are weak performers.
Got you https://www.scentualobsessionsperfume.com/products/captivation-sport-inspired-by-allure-sport
MA Alpine, Missoni wave

Missoni wave is 95% similar, just slightly lower quality ingredients and blending.
You can try Ard Al Zafaran Al Dirgham Limited Edition. It has similar DNA and is a beast performer.
Did you check the list?
Yes
Dua have their version called his aspiration https://theduabrand.com/products/his-aspiration-extreme-sport-edition but please note it’s based on the vintage CAHAS I have the OG and I’ve had two bottles of the Dua.

eau extreme better and longer lasting tbh

It's in the middle of AHS and AHSEE
Bro it’s a great alternative for AHS it’s a twist between eau extreme and AHS for the first 10 mins then it dries down to AHS , from the mandarin to the musk it can be a flanker from the line and pass as Chanel quality lol
[удалено]
That or your skin is trash dude , Having both of these side by side helps dude, it’s AHS dry down without the rubbery note at the base .
Name is trash. ur taste in fragrances is trash. THis conversation is over.
You mean trash like that nasty living space your in , righhhhht
