Soaps that dupe YSL Rive Gauche Pour Homme...

So, we all know that Fine American Blend is a dupe scent of the delicious YSL juice. 
Are there any other soaps out there? 

I believe that Tallow + Steel Classic Two is a take on that scent, but not identical.

Excellent suggestion, David. Just ordered a puck!

Joseph, I have the soap and splash, but never used the YSL. Hope it's OK as I only repeated the T+S description.

No worries, David. 
I enjoy the T+S soaps...  
I have a bottle of the YSL...  
I am not a fan of the PAA line and I have already been through a puck of the Fine. Once was enough for that soap.

Ordered.

Question... I have bought Fine American Blend TWICE and really can't tolerate it. Is that what YSL actually smells like (sharp/perfumy)???
I was expecting a green fougere going from one description or two.

I wasn't intending to insult anyone who enjoy YSL RGpH or the soap dupes...... But when I smell American Blend, I get none of what's mentioned here:



Help please!

I have never been a fan of the Fine American blend. I took a sniffy-sniff this morning of the YSL and it’s far more complicated than the soap. I will sniff some more later and report back.

Thanks Primo!
Given the love for YSL I expected much better from AB.

But then again the AB has a lot of love too, so what do I know!!! Fine even claims it's their signature scent, I don't get it. Maybe it was their first scent?

Please do report back.
