5 Perfumes Similar to Jazz Club

Jazz Club is one of the most beloved best sellers from Maison Margiela’s Replica line of fragrances. The scent is great, but it an be kind of pricey. As such, many people are looking for cheaper alternatives that smell similar to Jazz Club.

Or, you might be wanting something with a close style, but ultimately a different perfume. In either case, this is my page for keeping track of fragrances which fit the bill.

What fragrances smell similar to Jazz Club?

Jazzy Inspiration

Jazz by Dua– The Dua Brand’s take on the Jazz Club style, trying to be inspired by the original, and come as close to the target as possible.

This warm retelling of the Jazz formula, hits you with the same rum and tobacco embrace, while being softened by vanilla and amber notes. Don’t worry, as the pink pepper and sage still liven things up for you, in the early stages.

Simple and easy for those who want something inspired by and a near perfect match for the popular target fragrance. Very affordable, as well.

Got the Blues

California Blues by Alexandria– The Alexandria version of inspired by perfumes of Jazz Club. This brand is slightly more expensive, but you do get four size options to choose from, and the quality from them has always been great.

Each of these inspired takes is going to have a slightly different formula from the others. The weighting might not 100% percent match the Replica perfume, but you will get very very close, just with some notes being favored over others.

Alexandria is one of the better brands in the designer inspired fragrance space. Delivering potent extrait de parfum versions of some classic perfumes. The Jazz Club entry, is no exception.

Tobacco and Jazz

Woody Tobacco by Dossier– Here’s a third inspired take, this time from Dossier. The top is lemon, pink pepper, dry fruits, with the tobacco note coming in as a centerpiece.

Around the same price as the Dua version, but going to run a few bucks more (at time of posting). I’d probably go with Jazz by Dua as my first pick, if I wanted a near matching inspired take on Jazz Club.

But, that being said, I also like the fragrances that Dossier comes out with. This one is only available currently in the 50mL size, but it’s a pretty good value play, and can be worth a shot.

Vicious Name, Nice Smell

Death by Killer Oud– Not going to be the ‘same’ as Jazz Club, but this has a similar style to what we’re looking for, with some changes.

The good news, is we get spice and the tobacco note, just like in the Replica perfume. The rum note isn’t here, so, it’s just a spice without the booziness. The biggest difference? The oud and leather notes.

What’s surprising here, is that the oud, actually isn’t the dominating force. It’s around, but it’s seemingly tempered by the smoothness of tobacco, leather, and an ambery finish.

Softer and smoother than Jazz Club, it evokes a closely related vibe, but has enough distinction to stand alone as a fragrance.

Oud and Tobacco

Oud Malaki by Chopard– Similar to Killer Oud above, but has way more of the oud versus the leather, and a smokier spicy/sweet formula, which lends itself to Jazz Club comparisons.

Again, this is another perfume that is not trying to be the same as our target. It’s one that should appeal to you, if you like the Maison Margiela fragrance.

It’s actually a really nice tobacco and oud blend with an initial warm spiciness that gets sweeter and smoother, in the dry down.

Oud Malaki does its own thing, but if you want a good warm and smoky blend with that same sort of energy you get from Jazz Club; then this is an excellent stand alone and distinctive alternative option.
