reddit post ↗“Alexandria 1981X - Xerjoff Naxos (95%)”
reddit ↗“1981x is a dupe of Naxos and Le Meteore is a dupe of Meteore by LV I've had both of the originals and i'm impressed by these two. the performance(long lasting and depth) of Le Meteore is actually better than the original surprisingly while”

Where people disagree
“I find Alexandria too expensive for a clone. I mean 100ml costs half as much as the original Naxos. Aelxandria 30ml costs 43$, I can get a 20ml decant of Naxos for around that price.”
reddit ↗“Never buy Alexandria fragrances. They’re too overprices. I rather buy Naxos for €200 than Alexandria 1981x for €105”
reddit ↗“Then I tried Naxos and from the opening at least (I was in a huge Selfridges and bombarded by hundreds of niche frags) it was completely different to the 1981x.”
reddit ↗“1981X (their take on Xerhoff Naxos; too powdery for me, gave me a headache)”
reddit ↗“Alexandria’s 1981x (Naxos). To be honest, it smells fine but it completely misses the delicate natural feel of the original”

“Rayhaan Italia (inspired by Xerjoff Naxos) - Never tried the real Naxos, but I’ve tried a bunch of dupes like - Voux Elegante (Paris Corner), Fierte Luna (French Avenue), etc. Out of all of them, this is the best.”
reddit post ↗“To start these are close, about 90-95% similar.”
reddit post ↗“Oh yea, I've never smelled any of the other Naxos clones so I can't compare this to them.”
reddit post ↗“For my taste its a more easy to wear inspired by Naxos with fenomenal performance and longevity on skin n cloth is phenomeal! Its of curse not 1:1 Naxos but you smell what it trys to be and you get a Naxos scent profile what is wearable yea”
reddit post ↗“Rayhaan Italia 9.5/10 🤍 Great scent from beginning to end. Smells very much like Naxos, almost as good, if not better. A bit sweet though, but opening, and drydown are great. Easy buy for 30.”

“I don't own Naxos so no idea if it's close but it's just awful smelling to me”
reddit post ↗“Rayhaan Italia - This is one I was really excited for. Rayhaan has crazy hype and it's justified but this is just awful. I don't own Naxos so no idea if it's close but it's just awful smelling to me.”
reddit post ↗“I own some clones like rayhaan italia and liquid brun, but neither quite smell like either naxos or althair because they are both missing some small things such as italia being too soapy”
reddit post ↗“Rayhaan Italia Is good but it’s too Lavender heavy imo.. the Projection for Italia is Unmatched but it’s not 100% exact clone of Naxos. The dry down (if you can call it that) is super lavender heavy, just like the top notes. For me, Italy i”

reddit post ↗“Fierte Luna is still the best smelling naxos clone.”
reddit post ↗“Fierte Luna smells a bit higher in quality as ateeq but starts like an old Naxos. Sweetness missing, honey not that strong. This one is really close at the end after 5h to Naxos.”
reddit post ↗“The best one is Fierte luna 100%. The scent and the quality is so nice and close to naxos”
reddit post ↗“Fierte Luna Welcome to the Naxos DNA craziness. Luna makes you feel special.”
