You can try the original, Lust in Paradise, at 10ML as a 10 ml decant from €48.78, before you choose a dupe.
What does Lust in Paradise smell like?
This unisex perfume by Ex Nihilo was composed by Louise Turner. It opens on pink pepper. The heart pairs white peony with lychee, and the base settles on white cedarwood, musk and amber. Its listed accords are floral, musk and fruity, so the shape to look for in any rival is a peppery top, a peony and lychee centre and a soft musky finish.
The Extrait version
Ex Nihilo also makes Lust in Paradise Extrait, an Extrait de Parfum from 2026, also by Louise Turner. Its listed notes add blackcurrant, ginger and rosyfolia on top, jasmine sambac, petalia and rose in the heart, and akigalawood, ambrofix and cedarwood in the base. Everything below is compared with the original perfume, not with the Extrait.
Wear the original first
You can wear the real perfume before you pay for any bottle of a rival. The 3ml decant is €16.11, or €5.37/ml, and it is good for about 60 sprays. The 10ml decant is €48.78, or €4.88/ml, and lasts for about 200 sprays. Either size is enough to learn how the peony settles on you, which is the yardstick for every pick below.
Three of the four picks have a bottle price in the table. Per ml, all three cost less than either decant. The bottles hold 50ml to 75ml and the decants 3ml or 10ml, so compare per ml rather than by the price on the box.

Decent by BYBOZO leads because its vote is the tightest and its notes line up closely with the original's. On Parfumo's comparison page, 16 of 17 users find the two similar. That is under 20 voters, so the sample is small.
Decent is a 2021 perfume that lists pink pepper on top, lychee and peony in the heart, and ambergris, cedarwood and musk at the base. That shares pink pepper, peony, lychee and musk with the original and swaps the white cedarwood and amber for cedarwood and ambergris. It suits someone who wants the peppery peony centre and does not mind a base listed with ambergris instead of amber.

Closest on the dry-down: Lost In Eden
- Bottle price
- No EU price
- Basis of comparison
- Named source
Lost In Eden by Yom & Layl carries the closest label only because its own house says so, and that is the only evidence we have for it. The house's product page says it is inspired by Ex Nihilo's original and calls it a close impression. It says nothing about the dry-down, so the label here means that claim and no more. It has no Parfumo comparison page, so there is no vote line to quote.
The house lists pink pepper on top, peony, litchi and petalia in the heart, and musk, white cedar extract and amber at the base. That matches the original's listed notes, with petalia added to the heart. It suits you if you want the same note list from a smaller label and are happy to rely on the label's own description. Do not treat the house's wording as a test result: wear the original and judge for yourself.

Lowest price: Especially Escada Delicate Notes

Especially Escada Delicate Notes by Escada has the lowest price per ml of the three priced picks. Parfumo members rate the overlap lower than for Decent: 21 of 28 users find the two similar. The page dates it 2012.
Its listed notes are Japanese rose, pear and grapefruit on top, rose and ambrette seed in the heart, and musk and woods at the base. Musk is the one note it shares with the original. It lists no pink pepper, peony or lychee, so it is a rose and pear route rather than a peony one. It suits someone who wants a pale, fruity floral at the lowest price per ml and will accept a different heart.

Fresher take: Grenade Pivoine Parfum
- Bottle price
- €72.00 · 60 ml

Grenade Pivoine Parfum by Fragonard is the fresher take, a label that rests on its listed notes alone. Its comparison page lists it among the perfumes similar to the original, but it shows no member vote count, so we cannot give you a number.
It lists pomegranate, bergamot and pear on top, rose absolute and peony in the heart, and cedarwood and oak wood at the base. It shares peony with the original, and a cedarwood in the base where the original lists white cedarwood. It lists no pink pepper, lychee or musk. That makes it a fruitier, woodier take on the peony idea. It suits you if peony is the part you care about and you like a bright pomegranate and pear opening.

Similar originals 10ML sells
Two perfumes that 10ML stocks come up beside the original on Parfumo. They are originals, not rivals to rank, so they sit outside the list above.
Delina by Parfums de Marly is the first: 93 of 214 users find it similar, and Parfumo dates it 2017. Delina La Rosée is the second: 76 of 139 users find it similar, and Parfumo dates it 2021. Both are large but split votes, so read them as a reason to try a decant, not as a verdict. Our guide to Delina dupes covers clones of Delina itself, which is a different question.
If the peony and litchi idea appeals, Fleur Narcotique lists lychee, bergamot and peach on top, with peony in the heart. Delina Exclusif lists litchi and pink pepper on top. Miss Dior Eau de Parfum (2021) lists peony in the top. Each is available as a 3ml decant.
What every pick leaves out
Compare the published note lists and a pattern shows up. Decent keeps the pepper and the peony but changes the base. Delicate Notes keeps only the musk. Grenade Pivoine Parfum keeps the peony and a cedarwood base. Lost In Eden is the one list that matches the original's notes, and the only evidence for it is the label's own description.
So the real question is which part of the original you want to keep. If it is the peppery opening, start with Decent or Lost In Eden. If it is a soft, fruity floral at a modest price per ml, Delicate Notes is the route, with a rose heart instead. Whichever you choose, a decant of the original lets you check that choice against the real thing before you commit to a full bottle.
How to test a dupe
Wear the original on its own first, on a day when you have nothing else on your skin. Spray it on your wrist, not on paper, and notice when the pink pepper gives way to the peony, and how the musk and amber sit once it has settled. Write down what you notice, because that note is what you compare a pick against later.
Then wear one pick on a different day. Two perfumes on one day blur together. Look for the same turn from pepper to peony, and check whether a pick drops the lychee, as Delicate Notes does, or swaps in fruit that the original does not list, such as the pear in Delicate Notes and Grenade Pivoine Parfum. For a small bottle, the price per ml index shows how the decant sizes compare, and our decant versus full bottle guide explains when the larger decant is the better buy.

Clone or original? What to know first
- Can I wear Lust in Paradise in 3ml before choosing a clone?
- Yes. A 3ml decant of Lust in Paradise costs €16.11 and gives about 60 sprays, while a 10ml decant costs €48.78 and gives about 200. Wear the original on a couple of different days before you decide whether a rival bottle is worth it.
- Which clone leads the Lust in Paradise ranking, and why?
- Decent by BYBOZO leads. On Parfumo's comparison page, 16 of 17 users find it similar to the original, which is a small sample. It lists pink pepper, peony and musk, as the original does, and swaps the white cedarwood and amber for cedarwood and ambergris.
- How close does Lost In Eden get to the original?
- The only evidence is the house's own page, which says it is inspired by the original, calls it a close impression and lists the same notes plus petalia. It says nothing about the dry-down. There is no Parfumo vote for it, so we cannot rate it ourselves. Wear the original first and judge it on your own skin.
- Should I try the Extrait instead of the original?
- They are two separate perfumes from Ex Nihilo. The Extrait lists blackcurrant, ginger and rosyfolia on top and jasmine sambac and rose in the heart, so its notes differ from the original's. A 3ml decant of each lets you compare them before you pick one.
- How does a Lust in Paradise decant compare per ml with a clone bottle?
- Per ml, all three clone bottles with a price in the table cost less: the 10ml decant works out at €4.88/ml. As a first trial the decant is the smaller outlay, since a 3ml is €16.11 and you can check the original before you buy a bottle of anything.
- Which clones share the original's pink pepper, peony and lychee?
- Decent and Lost In Eden both list pink pepper and peony, and both list lychee, spelt litchi on the house's own list for Lost In Eden. Especially Escada Delicate Notes lists none of the three, and Grenade Pivoine Parfum lists only peony of the three.
- Is there a good Lust in Paradise dupe for less?
- Especially Escada Delicate Notes has the lowest price per ml of the three with a price, but it lists rose, pear and grapefruit instead of peony. It is only a good match if you value the lower price over the note list, so try a decant first.
- How long does Lust in Paradise last on my skin?
- Wear depends on your skin and the weather, so there is no single figure to promise. Try a 3ml decant on different days and note how the peony and musk settle on you.
- Does 10ML sell dupes?
- No. 10ML sells only original perfumes. We buy our bottles from authorized EU distributors and directly from the brands, and 10ML decants every perfume itself. The dupes in this guide are other houses’ perfumes, and we don’t sell them. You can wear the original first from €16.11.
