Hurtigt svar
The best YSL Libre dupe overall is Léonie by Maison Alhambra, which also has the lowest price in the table. Owners find Desiree by Oakcha closest, with the full Libre note pyramid, and Golden Decade by Zara is the softer, creamier option. Be aware that several budget clones sit nearer Libre Intense than the original. Want the real thing? Libre is 24,21 € for a 10ml decant at 10ML.

What does Libre smell like?
Libre is the lavender-and-orange-blossom eau de parfum Yves Saint Laurent launched in 2019. The idea is a contrast: lavender, usually a barbershop note, set against a big white floral. It opens with mandarin orange, black currant, petitgrain and lavender, crisp and a little herbal. The heart is orange blossom and jasmine, creamy and bright. Underneath sit Madagascar vanilla, musk, cedar and ambergris, which warm it into a smooth, faintly powdery dry-down. Its listed accords lead with white floral, citrus, lavender and vanilla.
Which Libre are you trying to match?
This matters more for Libre than for most perfumes, because the name now covers a whole family and the clones do not all aim at the same one. The biggest trap is Libre Intense, the warmer, heavier flanker. It is not sold at 10ML, but several clones below follow it rather than the original: Parfumo lists Libre Intense first among the perfumes similar to Golden Decade, Tharwah Gold and Léonie Intense. If the Libre you love is the original eau de parfum, start with Léonie, Desiree or Floral Lavender.
| Version | Scent profile from its listed notes | Clones here that lean towards it |
|---|---|---|
| Libre | Lavender, orange blossom, vanilla | Léonie, Desiree, Floral Lavender |
| Libre Intense | Warmer and heavier, going by Parfumo members | Léonie Intense, Tharwah Gold, Golden Decade |
| Libre Le Parfum | Saffron, ginger, honey, tonka bean | None of the six |
| Libre L'Absolu Platine | Aldehydes, blue lavender, amber | None of the six |
| Libre Flowers & Flames | Coconut, lily, orange blossom | None of the six |
| Libre L'Eau Nue | Lemon, mandarin, orange blossom | None of the six |
| Libre Berry Crush | Raspberry, coconut, Bourbon vanilla | None of the six |
The flankers are separate perfumes, not stronger or lighter bottles of Libre, so none of the clones stands in for them.

Léonie by Maison Alhambra lists lavender, petitgrain, blackcurrant and mandarin on top, lavender, orange blossom and jasmine in the heart, and vanilla, ambergris, cedarwood and musk in the base. That is the Libre eau de parfum structure. Its Parfumo page lists Libre as the one perfume it resembles, and members there describe a strong resemblance to the original. A member of the Fragrantica forum also names it as a Libre dupe that lasts all day on them.
The main difference is polish. One Parfumo member calls it the quieter little sister of Libre, finer and more subtle, with the lavender more prominent. Another finds it the strongest match of the lot but harsher and more synthetic, and preferred the softer Zara option. Members agree on one thing: the lavender is turned up.
It suits someone who loves the lavender side of Libre and wants a year-round, everyday version. Basis: named sources, the Parfumo page and the forum thread linked above.

Softer take: Golden Decade

- Grundlag for sammenligningen
- Navngiven kilde
Golden Decade by Zara is built around orange blossom, lavender and vanilla. Its Parfumo page lists Libre Intense, Libre and Libre Le Parfum first among similar perfumes, in that order.
The main difference is that it leans towards the Intense. Parfumo members place it between Libre and Libre Intense, with a clean, fresh lavender and a warmer, more buttery vanilla than the original. One member finds only the opening different from Libre; another calls it a fresher, lighter Libre Intense. On Fragrantica, a member who owns both Libre versions finds it closest to the Intense, with sharper citrus. A Parfumo member who compared it with Léonie found the Zara creamier and softer.
It suits someone who finds Libre's lavender a little stark and wants it rounded off with more vanilla. Basis: named sources, the Parfumo and Fragrantica pages linked above.

Floral Lavender by Dossier lists blackcurrant, mandarin and neroli, then jasmine, lavender and orange blossom, then amber, musk and vanilla. Its Parfumo page lists Libre as its one similar perfume.
The main difference is in the finish. The listed base swaps Libre's cedar and ambergris for amber, and a Parfumo member who has owned both over and over describes it as very close: lavender, vanilla and a clean, soapy feel. On its Fragrantica page, a member who owns Libre and several scents inspired by it names this her favourite of them. That is two voices rather than a crowd, so weigh them accordingly. It was listed as unavailable by its maker on the day we checked, so the table shows no price for it.
It suits someone who wears Libre for its clean, freshly laundered side, for daytime and the office. Basis: named sources, its Parfumo and Fragrantica pages.

Sweeter take: Tharwah Gold

Tharwah Gold by Lattafa Pride lists lavender and bergamot, then orange blossom and jasmine, then amber, vetiver and vanilla. Its Parfumo page lists Libre Intense first among similar perfumes, then L'Interdit by Givenchy, then Libre.
The main difference is sweetness. A long Parfumo write-up calls it a sweeter, more floral, almost nectar-like version of both Libre and Libre Intense: the same orange blossom, lavender and citrus signature, but more classically feminine, with a creamy orange blossom and vanilla. The same member likes it more than the original Libre but less than the Intense and Le Parfum. On Fragrantica, Libre heads the list of perfumes its fans also like. It was unavailable where we checked its price, so the table shows none.
It suits someone who finds Libre a little austere and wants the sweeter, more floral reading, for evenings and cooler weather. Basis: named sources, Tharwah Gold's own Parfumo and Fragrantica pages.

Léonie Intense by Maison Alhambra is the house's answer to Libre Intense rather than the original. Its listed notes mirror Libre's own pyramid, blackcurrant to ambergris, but its Parfumo page lists Libre Intense first among similar perfumes, with Golden Decade second.
The main difference is depth. One Parfumo member finds the vanilla stronger than in Léonie and the whole thing lighter than Libre Intense itself. So it sits on the warmer, deeper side of the original, not beside it.
It suits someone who owns or loves Libre Intense and wants that direction at a lower price, or who finds the original Libre too bright. No EU list price was found for it on the day we checked. Basis: a named source, the Parfumo page linked above.

Closest on the dry-down: Desiree

- Navngiven kilde
Desiree by Oakcha lists blackcurrant, lavender, mandarin and petitgrain, then jasmine, lavender and orange blossom, then ambergris, Bourbon vanilla, cedar and musk. Set beside Libre, that is the same pyramid stage by stage, down to the ambergris, cedar and musk of the base. Its Parfumo page lists Libre as its one similar perfume, and on its Fragrantica page several member comments find it very close to Libre.
The main difference is that fewer people have worn it. Parfumo holds only one short statement, from a member who recognises the Libre character but is not a fan of it, and the Fragrantica comments are fewer than for Léonie. Its base lines up with Libre's on paper, and so does Léonie's, which is why Léonie, with far more wearers behind it, is the overall pick.
It suits someone who wants a close take on the original eau de parfum, as its owners describe it, in a smaller, 50ml bottle. Basis: named sources, the Parfumo and Fragrantica pages linked above.

What every clone gets wrong
Libre is a balancing act between a clean, almost masculine lavender and a creamy, feminine orange blossom, with vanilla holding the two together. The clones tip the balance. Léonie and Floral Lavender push the lavender. Golden Decade, Tharwah Gold and Léonie Intense push the vanilla and sweetness, which is why Parfumo keeps pairing them with Libre Intense. Almost no one gets the tension exactly, and that tension is the whole point of the original.
The second gap is texture. Parfumo members describe Léonie as harsher and more synthetic, and Floral Lavender as soapy. The original's ambergris and musk give a smooth, skin-like finish that a note list cannot promise.
A clone bottle, or Libre in a smaller size?
Three of the six clones carry an EU list price, shown in the table above, in 50ml to 100ml bottles. That is a lot of perfume to own before you know whether the lavender suits you, whichever bottle you choose.
At 10ML, Libre is decanted from the Yves Saint Laurent bottle. The smallest, a 3ml decant at 8,37 €, gives you around 60 sprays: enough to know within a week. A 10ml decant costs 24,21 € (2,42 €/ml) and holds around 200 sprays for weeks of daily wear. If Libre is already a favourite, the 30ml decant at 59,40 € (1,98 €/ml) runs to around 600 sprays and gives the lowest price per ml. Put the 10ml decant next to the clone prices in the table and the difference is smaller than the full-bottle maths suggests. Our price per ml index puts every perfume we stock on the same scale.
Original perfumes to try instead
If you like Libre's style but want something of your own, two originals we stock share part of it. Our guide to the best perfumes for women has more.
My Way by Giorgio Armani opens with bergamot and orange blossom, moves to tuberose and Indian jasmine, and settles on Madagascar vanilla, white musk and Virginian cedar. It keeps the orange blossom, jasmine and vanilla and drops the lavender.
Goddess by Burberry pairs lavender with a triple dose of vanilla, plus cacao and ginger. It keeps the lavender and vanilla and drops the white flowers, for something warmer and more gourmand.
How to test a dupe
A paper strip flatters the top notes and hides the base, and with Libre the base is where the clones drift apart. Spray one wrist once and let the day run: first sniff straight away, a second around midday, a third before bed.
Keep each contender to its own day. Two scents worn at once blur together, and you end up judging a blend nobody sells. At each check, ask where the lavender sits, how creamy the orange blossom is and how sweet the vanilla has become. If a clone tips into sugar where Libre stays clean, you have found its difference.
Wear any clone a handful of times before you settle, and compare it with Libre on your own skin rather than with a memory from a shop counter. A 3ml decant of Libre makes that fair. Weighing a full bottle? Read how we think about the blind buy alternative, and what a perfume decant is for how ours are filled.

Klon eller original? Det bør du vide først
- Can I try YSL Libre in 3ml before choosing a dupe?
- 10ML sells Libre in 3ml, 10ml and 30ml decants, filled from the original bottle and shipped across the EU. The 3ml is 8,37 €.
- Which YSL Libre dupe leads our ranking?
- Léonie by Maison Alhambra is the best overall pick in this guide: it lists the Libre eau de parfum notes and Parfumo members describe a strong resemblance, with more prominent lavender.
- Is there a dupe closer to the original Libre, less sweet than the Intense?
- Yes. Léonie, Desiree and Floral Lavender follow the original eau de parfum. Golden Decade, Tharwah Gold and Léonie Intense lean towards the warmer, sweeter Libre Intense.
- Is Maison Alhambra Léonie a dupe of YSL Libre?
- It is the overall pick here. Its Parfumo page lists Libre as the one perfume it resembles, and members there find it close, quieter and more lavender-led; one finds it harsher. Its sister, Léonie Intense, follows Libre Intense instead.
- Which Libre should I choose: the original, Le Parfum or another flanker?
- The original is lavender and orange blossom over vanilla. Le Parfum adds saffron, ginger, honey and tonka for a warmer take, and L'Absolu Platine leans further into lavender. Trying two of them as 3ml decants is the easiest way to decide.
- Which clones follow the original Libre eau de parfum?
- Among clones, Léonie, Desiree and Floral Lavender follow the original eau de parfum. Among original perfumes, My Way by Giorgio Armani shares the orange blossom, jasmine and vanilla, and Goddess by Burberry shares the lavender and vanilla.
- Do Libre clones cost less than a full bottle?
- The clone bottles with an EU list price in the comparison table cost far less than a full bottle of Libre. You can also wear the original for weeks with a 10ml decant at 24,21 €.
- What is the closest YSL Libre dupe?
- Desiree by Oakcha, according to several Fragrantica members. Its notes line up with Libre stage by stage, its Parfumo page lists Libre as a similar perfume and several Fragrantica members find it very close. Fewer people have worn it than Léonie, which is why Léonie leads the ranking overall.
- Kan man hos 10ML købe dupes?
- Nej. 10ML sælger kun originale parfumer. Vi køber vores flasker hos autoriserede EU-distributører og direkte hos mærkerne, og 10ML decanter selv hver parfume. Dupes i denne guide er andre parfumehuses parfumer, og dem sælger vi ikke. Du kan bære originalen først fra 8,37 €.
