reddit post ↗“Alexandria Fragrances Pour Homme II will be worth checking out”
reddit ↗“The Pour Homme II by Alexandria (Gucci Pour Homme II)”
reddit ↗“Alexandria The Pour Homme II is a viable alternative and is pretty close to my nose. Captures enough of the OG that I could smell it on someone else and be convinced”
reddit ↗“Hard to put a number on accuracy but gun to my head: ~90%. If you’re familiar with the original you’ll easily recognize it. Given the crazy markup of the OG its a very good substitute”

Where people disagree
“It’s not”
reddit ↗“It’s familiar in the opening but that soon fades and performance and projection just doesn’t cut it. One of the reasons I loved the OG was it’s ability to create a serious scent bubble with very few sprays”
reddit ↗“I think Alexandria’s is too sweet. It’s honestly like a punch in the face for me. GPH2 was much more airy and well blended. Closeness is about 70%, it hits the main points but misses the details which made it what it was.”
reddit ↗“I have Alexandria’s and the one by FOMO’s Frag lovers Tea which both everyone claims are clones, and all I can say is to KEEP SEARCHING! Although they are decent fragrances there is no unfortunately they aren’t a substitute or comparison to”
reddit ↗“i purchased both said to be clones and I can honestly say they aren’t even on the same page”

- Most community members consider Imbue to be an excellent, very close match to Gucci Pour Homme II, though at least one reviewer strongly disagreed.
- Users consistently report strong performance, noting it lasts anywhere from 6 to 8 hours up to all day.
- Reviewers point out that it is relatively pricey for a clone and can take longer to ship than competing alternatives.
Where people agree
“I was more impressed with Parfums Vintage version called Imbue.”
reddit post ↗“definitely the standard Imbue from PF, closest I've ever found to GPH2 and I've tried a lot of supposed clones.”
reddit ↗“Imbue is in the low 90%, but lasts all day. The draw for me to try Alexandria was the cheaper price for the larger volume, and fast shipping from California.”
reddit ↗“Parfum Vintage Imbue is an excellent clone”
reddit ↗“Both are clones of Pour Home II, but Imbue lasts a good 6-8 hours on me. Alexandrias is only 1-2 hours. Just unfortunate since Imbue runs ~$60 more and takes at least 2 weeks to get to you”

Where people disagree
“Who is saying imbue is gph2? side by side noway, not for me.”

- Reddit users generally view Hanae Mori HiM as sharing a similar vibe rather than being an exact clone, with one estimating it at only 50% similar.
- Commenters note that while both share cinnamon, HiM is slightly less fresh and leans warmer with amber and tonka instead of tea and tobacco.
- There is minor disagreement over the presence of bergamot and violet notes, though users generally agree the fragrance stands well on its own.
