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

Start with Maison Alhambra's The Tux ($25–35): it is the only dupe here backed by community consensus (graded close) rather than a seller's own claim. The three "inspired by" dupes are unranked against each other; among them, ALT. Fragrances' Suit & Tie is the cheapest per ml at $0.82/ml, ahead of Alexandria Fragrances' Black Tie Affair ($1.1/ml) and Oil Perfumery's oil ($1.25/ml).

Expect The Tux to lean more directly into spice and patchouli-rose than the original's fuller spread of coriander, patchouli, black pepper, vanilla, bergamot, ambergris, lily of the valley, rose and violet leaves; that is the only note detail on file for a dupe, from the community note on The Tux ("Spicy patchouli-rose"). For the three seller-claim dupes, there's no notes breakdown available, so the data can't tell you how closely they track the original's individual notes, only that the sellers describe them as inspired by Tuxedo.

Hybrids that borrow from it

1 Dua Fragrances “inspired hybrids” combine Tuxedo with a second original. They are not straight dupes and do not count toward the ranking.

How to read this table

A seller claim means the clone house itself published that the product is inspired by Tuxedo. 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.
