From what I’ve been digging up, there are definitely contenders. Zara, bless their fast-fashion heart, seems to be a popular place to start your hunt. I saw something about their “Dipendenza” fragrance potentially being a dupe, calling it an “Oriental fragrance.” Now, “Oriental” can be a broad term, but Dior Addict *is* an Oriental Floral, so… maybe worth checking out? Especially if you’re looking for something vegan and cruelty-free. Plus, free shipping is always a win, am I right?
Then there’s this Gliss Beauty place… apparently they’re all about affordable perfume alternatives. They mention an Ajmal Aristocrat for Her being a dupe. I gotta say, I’m kinda skeptical about random perfume dupes online. Sometimes they smell like straight-up rubbing alcohol. But hey, maybe this Gliss Beauty is legit? Could be worth a sniff if you’re feeling adventurous.
Now, I know this article *supposedly* about finding a Dior Addict *Eau de Parfum* dupe, but I also stumbled across some stuff about the Dior Addict *Fluid Stick* (which, btw, is a lip gloss, not a perfume… whoops!). Apparently, there are dupes for *that* out there too, so if you’re also on the hunt for a cheaper lip gloss alternative, you’re in luck! Not entirely relevant to the *perfume* thing, but, y’know, good to know!
Okay, back to the *actual* mission. I saw someone mentioning Coach EDP as being similar… but then they also said something about getting it for “close to 3k or…” I’m guessing they meant 3k pesos or rupees or something? Because if Coach EDP costs *that* much… then what’s the point of even trying to dupe Dior Addict?! Makes no sense! My brain hurts now.
Honestly, finding a *perfect* dupe is like finding a unicorn riding a bicycle. It’s rare. BUT, you can definitely find scents that capture the *vibe* of Dior Addict without breaking the bank. My advice? Don’t be afraid to experiment! Go to a store, sniff around, and see what strikes you. Maybe you’ll find something *better* than a dupe – maybe you’ll find your new signature scent!
