Agar Dupe: Alexandria Fragrances' Take on Oud Wood Parfum

Alexandria Fragrances Agar is marketed as a dupe for Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum, with the documented notes below belonging to the Tom Ford original.

What Is Agar a Dupe For?

Alexandria Fragrances Agar is marketed by the house as a dupe for Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum. That means this page treats Agar as an alternative that aims to evoke the direction of the Tom Ford fragrance, rather than as the Tom Ford product itself. If you are comparing names online, keep the distinction clear: the bottle and brand are Alexandria Fragrances, while the reference point is Oud Wood Parfum.

For US shoppers, this is the sort of direct-to-consumer fragrance comparison that is often made before buying online. We focus on what can be verified: the house's claim and the documented profile of the original fragrance.

What Notes Define Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum?

The note pyramid below is for Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum, not for Agar. We do not list a separate note pyramid for Agar because one is not part of our verified data for this page.

Original documented top notes: cardamom, pink pepper, rosemary. Original documented heart notes: sandalwood, patchouli, agarwood (oud), vetiver. Original documented base notes: vanilla, tonka, amber. Original documented accords: warm spicy, woody, vanilla, powdery, aromatic.

This positions the reference fragrance, at least on paper, around the listed warm spicy, woody, vanilla, powdery, and aromatic accords. Agar should be read as Alexandria Fragrances' take on that reference, not as an official Tom Ford release.

How Do We Verify the Agar and Oud Wood Parfum Link?

For pages like this, we start with the brand statement: is the alternative openly marketed as inspired by, or as a take on, a named fragrance? Here, the basis is the house-marketed claim connecting Alexandria Fragrances Agar with Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum.

We also look for outside support such as fragrance-community discussion or press mentions when those are available. In this case, the recorded basis is the house's own marketing claim, so we mark the connection with medium confidence rather than presenting it as a heavily corroborated consensus. That confidence level is about the claim link only; it is not a judgment on quality, value, wear time, or how the scent may read on skin.

Who Might Compare These Two?

This page is useful if you already know you are interested in Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum's documented profile and want to see an Alexandria Fragrances product that is positioned in that same conversation. The original's listed structure emphasizes cardamom, pink pepper, and rosemary over a sandalwood, patchouli, agarwood (oud), and vetiver heart, then finishes on vanilla, tonka, and amber.

If you want the Tom Ford bottle, branding, and official release, the answer is still Tom Ford Oud Wood Parfum. If you want an Alexandria Fragrances alternative marketed around that inspiration, Agar is the product name to search for. Treat the note list as a guide to the original's style, and sample cautiously if you can, because personal taste and skin chemistry can change how any fragrance reads.
