Where people agree
“Cuba prestige ](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Cuba-Paris/Cuba-Prestige-13803.html) it's a good clone of therry mugler amen, very masculine and sweet and also old schoolish”
reddit ↗“I have Cuba Prestige by Cuba Paris and it's a pretty solid AMen clone. Opening is a bit different as the Cuba is what I would consider less harsh maybe a bit sweeter. It's dirt cheap is pretty darn close the AMen.”
reddit ↗“Yes and a very perfect dupe!”
reddit ↗“No difference between the two 😞 . I wasted $70 to $80 on a cologne I could have bought for $5.”
reddit ↗“I get why one wouldn't like Prestige. I love Amen myself, but I fully understand why it's so polarizing in the community.”

“This was $16 when I got it. It's an AMen clone (one of my favorite profiles, but I rarely wear it because my wife hates it).”
reddit post ↗“Star Men by fragrance world is a very good clone of that, and performs just as well”
reddit ↗“Star Men (not Nebula). An AMen clone. Nuclear performance (top 3 out of 50 I have, along with Nitro Red and Ameer Al Oud Intense), cost less than $20, and does a very good job cloning the OG.”
reddit ↗“As you probably know, it's an A-Men (Mugler) clone. TLDR: DNA similarity 8.5\10 Projection: 4\10 (OG is about 6.5\10). Longevity on skin: 9.5\10 Longevity on clothes: Not tested yet. Price: On sale on Amazon (from a known good seller) for 2”
reddit post ↗“Star Men (Blue not Nebula). Randomly saw it on Amazon for $12, ordered it, and till this day, after trying over 100 decants and buying over 35, it's still one of my most nuclear fragrances, and pretty close to the OG.”
