    I honestly think it's wrong that they copied the bottle design so specifically. I mean, companies are going to make "their version of" there's nothing anyone can do about that, however, this is just a blatant theft of, bottle, logo and name design, even more so I think now that most designer and some niche companies don't even use real oud and a lot of fragrances use mostly aroma chemicals the use of the gas spectrometry machines enables them to use this technology to analyze and completely duplicate fragrances with ease. It no secret that in Countries like United Arab Emirates and China the copyright laws are different than the US. Im sure they couldn't care less. That doesnt make it right. I personally have only smelled the real oud for greatness and i doubt oud for glory is as smooth as the original.

So I might stick to the original. What do you think? Edit: after you asked about the copyright I actually realized that I don't mind getting dupes for big brands that are worldwide established.

    I don’t feel bad for these brands, tbh, Sebastian. Because I know how CHEAP it is to create a fragrance. That famous youtuber, Jeremy, said the production costs around10$ for a bottle or something around there. And another example, look how cheap Lataffa sells this Oud for glory for a pretty decent offering: 50$! Which shows that the big brands are doing unethical marketing, like all high fashion designers out there. Fortunately, I can afford to buy the original, but it’s unfair to be charged 10 times the production costs. So no, I don’t shed a tear for them.

    There is no copyright anywhere in the world for scents. Many large brands have tried to sue and lost. That is why clones exploded. However, they could definitely get sued for design and name. Most clones don't try to clone the name and bottle that closely, but these fragrances could definitely get sued. It is so close and they are pushing the limits with these ones.

    I only have Lattafa Maahir Black Edition and I love it. Since I don't know a lot of incense scents, I wasn't looking for something that smells like this or that from more expensive brands. I just like it for the way it is, longevity is amazing. After reformulations I won't buy perfume just because it has Lancome or Dior written on the bottle. I bought Magie Noire after reformulation and it was such a disappointment. I started looking for something else, namely vintage perfumes and something, that has long history, for example Santa Maria Novella. I admit, I was wrong in the beginning, Santa Maria Novella scents do smell all day long. Or Robert Piguet, I ended up bying 3 scents - Bois Noir, Oud and Casbah. At least I have something that stays with me all day long. I also got something very unique from our own Polish perfume creator. He created a scent of forest and meadow as he remembers it from his childhood in the countryside. He also explained how a lot of smells are created today - very short beginning (instead of top notes), main accord and huge background around everything, usually molecules. So he takes his time, makes his own extraits and makes his scents the way they were created in the past.

I think the scent ID isn't anything that hasn't and isn't being done.... the branding and design however haha, but I guess it got the job done because everyone is talking about the blatant cloning.

    I was given a mini 7.5 ml of Oud For Greatness from my favorite fragrance boutique in Montreal called Etiket. I fell in love with it but it's only 7.5ml, so when I had the opportunity to get Oud For Glory for only $36, I had to be sure before I ordered it. I found this comparison video and decided based on your review that Oud For Glory would be worth the blind buy risk. Tonight, I tested both to compare. Greatness on my left hand and Glory on my right and they smell virtually the same. The only difference to my nose is Greatness feels a bit rounder and smoother. Glory actually projects better from my skin so far. It's so good. Thanks for this video, Sebastian. I'm so glad I jumped on Glory. I just saved myself $400 CAD by buying it instead of Greatness.

Apart from the IFRA regulations , I wonder how the perfumers can patent their formulas and to what degree that side of the business is regulated. However, I’m curious about Oud for Glory. I’ve yet to find a clone that is exact to the original. I have Rouge Amber Oud which is supposed to be a clone for Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait. It’s not…similar, but so different.

    This can be argued as an example of trademark infringement where the bottle design is very similar and easily can cause confusion amongst the buying public. The problem is that protecting the trademark involves costly litigation. Initio can easily start with a cease and desist letter and pursue litigation if warranted. If, however, “Oud for Glory”changed the bottle design, they could continue to sell the juice. The question is did Initio ever register a trade service mark for its name “Oud for Greatness” and if they did, they may be able to legally challenge the “Oud for Glory” name. But they would have to pursue this legally. Depending on the law firm and the legal challenges the legal costs can be prohibitively high on any infringement act.

    A somewhat similar example could be Midnight Oud by Ard Al Zaafaran, vs. Amouage Interlude. The aesthetics of the bottle are not so similar, but superficially the packaging clearly hints at the packaging of Interlude. And the smell is not only very similar, Midnight Oud is actually ranked higher than Interlude both on Fragrantica and Parfumo. I have Midnight Oud and have also smelled both Interlude and Interlude Black Iris. They are really very very similar. About the copying of the looks, not sure that's the big legal issue, more so I'd think would be the fragrance itself. But how to draw the line between flat out clones vs. the so called "inspired by" fragrances? Those also can milk quite huge amounts of money out of the similarity to the original (e.g. Explorer vs. Aventus), but is that also copyright infrigement and lawsuit worthy? Or is it not? For songs not sure why it is more clear cut. For example I remember a big scandal about Shakira allegedly using a small piece of an older famous merengue melody for the trumpets in her "My hips don't lie" song. Because she made millions with her song, even if it didn't become lawsuit worthy (not sure if it finally did), at least it was worldwide scandal-worthy for sure that she had used that little melody from somewhere else. And this is just because of some small melodic fragment that lasts only a few seconds within an entire 3+ minute song, so a very small percentage. Clones and "inspired by" fragrances I think relatively speaking clearly copy a lot more than just small %'s to resemble the overall scent profile to be cloned or to be hinted at. PS. Yet another example could be Rasasi Fattan vs. Terre de Hermes. Bottles don't look alike at all in this case, but the scent similarity is just jaw drapping.

    Great video! For some perspective on what you were wondering on about copying...I see it like this: if you were a clothes designer and someone made a design for a striped blue shirt...that doesn't mean you cant make a striped blue shirt. Or since you said you were into music, think about when someone does a particular style good and then other artists come out that copy their style of music and even the way they dress. I don't think there is a substantial argument that one company can own a black bottle with gold arabic type design. And as for the scent, if they didn't just copy their exact recipe...sadly, it's not copying. Btw I'm also a musician/artist/producer so I totally get the integrity side of the argument. But I think that's different from the question is if something is technically legal or whatever. Does this all make sense? Again though, great video! I love your content.

    I have owned both and I absolutely disagree with your point. Liwa is just an outright widian’s take on the br540 with amber tones and smoky. OFG also may have the 540 sweetness underneath due to the saffron in the base with Oud or woodiness. After owning all 3 i would say 540 is just sweet and OFG is more pungent and dark. Liwa is just in between.

    @ThePerfumeGuy : I’m assuming that there is no such thing as copyright infringements and trademarking outside the USA being that Initio is in France and Lattafa in UAE? I happen to own Lattafa’s Oud For Glory and Amethyst (smells just like Initio Atomic Rose); both to me smell the same at 85%. I went to ScentXplore 2019 and I still have the samples for OFG & AR; that’s how I was able to distinguish the difference between the two. I like wearing clones from UAE because they smell stronger that the originals (not all perfumes from UAE are clones) that are higher priced. That’s my opinion.

    I got the lattafa when it was released for around 20USD, have a decant of OFG, was never a fan of that ethyl maltol sweetness from BR. Tho, I do appreciate lattafa for pulling off such a close rendition of OFG, but surely, considering the artistic creative point of view of things, lattafa does no good, they're just clones at the end of the day. However, looking from a different angle, the release of Oud for Glory actually made OFG and Initio as a standalone house more pronounced in the south Asian part of the world.

    In all my myriad years of buying perfume, and I have myriads of full bottles, to the point that there is no more room for any more in my small condo, I have NEVER bought a clone of any perfume. However, it is ridiculous to pay the prices that some of these perfume houses are asking unless you are a wealthy person. I have always yearned to own Roja Diagalov (Sp.), but could never afford to spend over $1.000,00 for a perfume. However, no matter how close a clone came to it for any given small price, I would not buy it because it still would be a different perfume and not the original. Unfortunately, even without being a clone, there are still lots of legitimate perfumes out there that are not original either but like so many others on the market.

    The argument for perfume not being able to be copywritten like other art is because the materials used are found in nature so you can't copywrite nature itself, yet in modern perfumery we constantly used synthetics to produce accords so it becomes ironic when its more man made than natural.

    You can't copyright a fragrance. Free market. The bottle are different enough also. Look at all the fragrances out there, and many of the big brands have similar lettering, bottle shadows, and designs. Not identical, but it's a fine line. Lataffa did more than enough to make it different without getting sued, but you absolutely cannot copyright a fragrance. As far as trademarks, I noticed that fragrance companies just don't bother with it.
