Okay, listen up, fragrance fanatics! We all know Skylar. They’re, like, the *it* brand for clean-ish, nature-inspired perfumes. But let’s be real, sometimes your wallet screams louder than your desire for that dreamy “Boardwalk Delight” scent. That’s where the wonderful world of dupes comes in, baby!
I’ve been digging around the internet trenches (aka scrolling through blogs and TikToks – my life, I know) to find some killer Skylar alternatives. And lemme tell you, the dupe game is strong. But finding the *right* dupe? That’s the mission.
First off, let’s talk about the Sunkissed Dahlia situation. Apparently, Target’s Fine’ry line is coming in clutch with some potential matches. Fine’ry dropped some new scents late last year (December 2024, to be exact!), so keep an eye out. I haven’t personally sniffed ‘em yet, but the internet whispers are promising.
Then there’s the “Sweet Tooth” obsession, which, honestly, I kinda get. That sweet, gourmand thing? Addictive. I’ve heard rumors of some “clone” fragrances out there that nail the essence of similar luxurious scents. So, if you’re not necessarily aiming for a *perfect* dupe of a specific Skylar scent, but just want that general vibe, exploring those clones could be a good shout.
Now, “Pink Canyon” is a whole different beast. It’s got that unique, breezy thing going on. Apparently, Perfume Nez is THE place to go for deep dives into fragrance profiles. They break down the scent notes and stuff, which is super helpful when you’re trying to find something similar. I haven’t checked them out yet, but I am very interested to.
And speaking of specific scents, “Amber Dunes”! Oh, this one’s got some love. It’s a newer fragrance, launched in 2023, with that violet leaf, bergamot, and clove combo. Intriguing, right? I saw one blog mentioning it’s an Oriental fragrance, which makes sense. It is worth exploring if you’re into amber scents!
Oh, and TikTok… Don’t even get me started. TikTok’s like the Wild West of perfume recommendations. But, for what it’s worth, I did stumble upon a suggestion that Pacifica Neon Moon Spray Perfume is similar to Lake & Skye Santal Gray Eau de Parfum. And, since I like Santal Gray a lot, it could be a good dupe if you’re into the woodsy vibe.
But, okay, here’s my honest opinion: sometimes “dupe” is a loose term. As one article wisely pointed out, some perfumes aren’t exact dupes but deserve an honorable mention. Skylar scents are often unique, nature-inspired, and use those “safe” ingredients. So, even if you don’t find a perfect match, exploring other similar brands might lead you to a new scent soulmate.
