“Here comes Aristo which I got for $65 AUD (23% of the cost) In the air, it is IDENTICAL. Up close? 85%-90%.”

“I've tested both Ravine Ginver (French Avenue) and Aristo (Arabiyat Prestige), not only do they not smell even CLOSE to the original, but they also lack in the beast mode ( yes, Ingenius Ginger is actually beast mode) performance that the o”
reddit post ↗“Aristo gives me that same gag feeling. It plays on the Inginious Ginger DNA, but it's just not wearable compared to the original.”
reddit post ↗“This is the first dupe I have bought, it's not that close to the original. It's way more mandarin heavy and dries bubblegum. It's a great scent and worth the money but it's not as close as the reviews.”

TaifRiiffs

- Reddit considers Riiffs Taif to be a very close match to Ingenious Ginger, capturing the original's sweet vanilla and powdery drydown.
- Some reviewers view it as a slight twist, noting it comes across as a bit brighter, more floral, and more complex than the original.
- Users highlight its strong performance, pointing to better longevity and projection due to its extrait de parfum concentration.
“Ingenious Ginger clone battle. Riiffs Taif vs French Avenue Ravine Ginger”
reddit post ↗“Taiff is definitely the more complex scent, I prefer this over all other dupes as it has that sweet undertone of ingenious ginger, which isn't as similar to the original in the other dupes.”
reddit ↗“Well i could advise you to try Riiffs Taif, is also has the vanilla/powdery drydown, but its a little more brighter and floral compared to the OG and/or Aristo, atleast to my nose. But ofcourse it does surely have the same character.”
reddit ↗“I'll be the one to say it, Taif is definitely a twist, but by God is it a gorgeous fragrance.”
reddit ↗“Riffs es objetivamente mejor y más parecido al original. Tiene más duración y proyección y es un extracto de perfume.”
