Quick take
AI-assisted summary of the notes, prices and community notes listed on this page; no bottle was smelled. How this site is made
Try the Lattafa "Oud for Glory" first. It's the only entry with community consensus behind it rather than just a seller's own description, and its listed notes (saffron, lavender, oud) line up directly with the original's saffron-lavender-oud backbone. The Oil Perfumery and Dua Fragrances options are both unverified seller claims of "inspired by," so treat them as untested until more feedback accumulates; between the two, Oil Perfumery is cheaper per ml ($1.50 vs $1.62).
Expect Oud for Glory to run markedly stronger than most clones, so start with light application and build up rather than applying as you would the original. Beyond the shared saffron-lavender-oud notes, no side-by-side note breakdown is on file for any of the three against Initio's full list (which also includes patchouli, nutmeg and musk), so the data can't tell you how closely the drydown or the patchouli/nutmeg/musk balance actually matches — only that the top-line oud-saffron-lavender profile is claimed or agreed upon.

How to read this table
A seller claim means the clone house itself published that the product is inspired by Oud For Greatness. We quote the claim; we have not smelled the bottles. A community pairing means the seller does not name the original and the match comes from reviewer consensus, graded close or moderate.
Price per ml is the honest comparison. Perfume oils look cheap per bottle but come in 10 ml vials; a 100 ml Middle-Eastern EDP at $35 is $0.35/ml and usually the strongest performer in the group. Extraits from clone houses sit in between.
