The best Guilty dupe
Dossier Fougere Pink Pepper, $39
81% match · save $66
Why Fougere Pink Pepper works as a Guilty dupe
Guilty is built around Pink Pepper, Lavender, Patchouli. Dossier's Fougere Pink Pepper shares its most recognisable notes, Pink Pepper, Lavender, Patchouli, which is why it earns an 81% shared-note match, at $39 instead of $105. A dupe shares key notes; it isn't identical, and the dry-down and longevity can differ. But for the signature everyone notices, that match is what counts.
Where Fougere Pink Pepper differs from Guilty
The match is on the shared heart, Pink Pepper, Lavender, Patchouli, which is the part most people actually recognise. Beyond that, Fougere Pink Pepper doesn't carry Guilty's Cedar, so expect that accent to read softer or go missing, especially in the dry-down. If Cedar is the part of Guilty you love most, this dupe gets you close rather than all the way, so smell it on skin before you commit.
