Really nice
Overall- Royal Amber is a multyfruit-sweet shampoo with an overdose of cetalox and other modern chemical base materials. Features signature burnt sugar accord mixed with evernyl similar to Baccarat Rouge, which you might not even notice on the first tryout. This sweet accord differentiates RA from Erba Pura- which is barely even sweet to my nose, more woody. I own both of them. They are very similar, both are strictly summer favorites. But Royal Amber is more wearable, it doesn’t need to be worn outside only or in the highest of heats. Erba Pura is fresher and more shampooey IF the weather is right. This profile is a gem for tropical climate- understandable and alluring. Pulls compliments from random people. But there is a catch. DO NOT BLIND BUY! It may smell bad on your skin.
Very close to Electric Cherry
This is a very nice high quality blend inspired by Tom Ford Electric Cherry.
Smells very close in the opening, but on the contrary with TF stays longer on skin. Longevity is outstanding. Sillage is about the same, but people will smell you for longer. It’s an extrait de parfum like all the other Dua’s.
There is a faint Dua brand - middle eastern- base. It’s not super prominent, especially in a fresh bottle. But if you have a lot of fragrances from this brand, you get the similarity in some of them. Personally, I’m not opposed to it, it’s pretty enjoyable overall.
Electrocuted cherry is actually more fruity than TF, and less jasmine forward. The cherry is cherring! Fun and groovy. It’s a very sexy dna and even good for close encounters when sprayed lightly.
