Finding a perfect dupe, though? It’s kinda like finding a decent parking spot downtown on a Saturday night. Good luck! BUT, there are definitely perfumes out there that capture a similar vibe, you know? That fruity-floral sweetness that just screams “I’m cute and I smell amazing!” even if it’s not *exactly* the same.
I’ve seen some people online raving about Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb as a “Wonderstruck” dupe, but honestly? I kinda think it’s a bit of a stretch. Flowerbomb is *way* more intense, like, a whole bouquet exploded in your face kinda intense. It’s gorgeous, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not the same lighthearted, playful vibe as the original Taylor scent. I guess it depends on what you’re looking for, yanno? A similar *type* of perfume, or a near *identical* scent.
And then there’s, like, the whole world of Zara perfumes. Zara’s fragrances are known to be inspired by popular perfumes. I bet they have something that’s at least in the ballpark. You just gotta do a little sniffing around and hoping for the best (tbh, Zara perfumes can be hit or miss).
Speaking of sniffing around, the thing I miss the most about Wonderstruck? That gorgeous berry note. It was so yummy! I’ve tried some perfumes with prominent berry notes, and they are pretty good, but they’re not the same. It’s like trying to recreate your grandma’s secret recipe – you can get close, but there’s always something missing.
