Ranked by how many people have rated each perfume — the most-worn and most-discussed first. Every row already has a cheaper match; see the method box for the floor. Every perfume links to its own page with the full ranked list of alternatives and where to buy.
How this list was ranked
- Ranked by popularity, not our opinion. Rows are YSL’s perfumes with the most public ratings — that is what "ysl dupes" searchers mean, not an editor’s shortlist.
- Every row already has a cheaper match — that is a filter, not a footnote. A YSL perfume is dropped, not annotated, when it has no rank-1 alternative priced under it. At least 1,000 ratings and $50+ in price; 34 YSL perfumes cleared those two floors, and the 30 shown all clear the third.
- Discontinued perfumes are excluded. A list you buy from should not lead with a bottle no retailer stocks.
- The cheaper match is AltScent’s rank-1 alternative, shown only when it scores 85 or better. Similarity is an AI-generated estimate informed by community opinion; it describes perceived scent character and is not a statement of fact.
- Prices are estimates of a full bottle in USD and vary by retailer, size and time.
