The best Imagination dupe
Lattafa Art of Arabia I, $32
81% match · save $318
Why Art of Arabia I works as a Imagination dupe
Imagination is built around Bergamot, Black Tea, Sandalwood. Lattafa's Art of Arabia I shares its most recognisable notes, Bergamot, Black Tea, Ginger, which is why it earns an 81% shared-note match, at $32 instead of $350. 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 Art of Arabia I differs from Imagination
The match is on the shared heart, Bergamot, Black Tea, Ginger, which is the part most people actually recognise. Beyond that, Art of Arabia I doesn't carry Imagination's Sandalwood and Ambrette, so expect those accents to read softer or go missing, especially in the dry-down. If Sandalwood and Ambrette are the part of Imagination you love most, this dupe gets you close rather than all the way, so smell it on skin before you commit.
