Hey Sweetie!

Hey Sweetie! gives Oriana, she gives Love Don't Be Shy by Kilian. And she's gorgeous!! Honestly, The DUA Brand is doing some serious perfuming over there. If we're talking Parfum de Marly dupes, I own three from DUA, and they're all so beautifully blended, feminine and delicious. But let's stick to Hey Sweetie! (Oriana) here. In the opening, I immediately get some of the grapefruit, but not in a sharp citric way. It's softer and more rounded, but definitely present upon first spray. That beautiful orange blossom arrives early and stays late which is a big reason why Hey Sweetie! gives LDBS vibes, IMO. That juicy raspberry comes knocking, too, and helps the composition avoid being too citrusy. And then, hello marshmallow and whipped cream! There's a smooth creaminess to Hew Sweetie! that keeps me sniffing my arm over and over. I have only good, delicious, feminine, lovely things to say about Hew Sweetie! Definite two thumbs up. I have to mention the insane savings with the DUA version of Oriana-- and I'm not affiliated with DUA in any way. Just a true fan of what this house is doing, to the point that I now own 30+ bottles from them. A 1oz bottle of Oriana by PdM is $190 US; a 1oz bottle of Hey Sweetie! by DUA is $55 US. And DUA frequently has fantastic sales of 30% off, so that brings a bottle of Hey Sweetie! down to $38.50! This is why I can own more than 30 bottles from DUA, so far. And all of their formulations are extrait de parfum, which means a little goes a long way. Fantastic fragrance.

So surprised no one has yet reviewed this perfume on Fragrantica. If you love Oriana by PDM, but think is way too expensive, this right here is a perfect dupe for it. Similar 95% I would say. I don't know how DUA made it but they did! This is a marshmallow, orangey perfume, that smells like bubble gum or even reminds me of the Fruity Pebbles cereal, it just smells fun, bright, flirty and amazing! If you are not into sweet gourmands, you will hate this one. But if you love sweet , sweet perfumes, like Pink Sugar, Fantasy, Cloud, Sweet like Candy and Ari by Ariana, this is a grown up version of those that you will ADORE!!! A tip that everyone gives for DUA Perfumes, since they are freshly made once you place your order. it is recommended that once it arrives, spray it 1 or 2 times and then let it sit for a couple of weeks or a month. These perfumes need time to macerate to get all the beauty and perfection from them.

I have had this one for a couple months now. For a while I smelled nothing but citrus and the "burnt hair" fixative that DUA is known for. Through time it's developed into a fragrance that's 90% Oriana and I really enjoy it. I'll probably buy the real thing next but this was nice to test it and see if I reach for it. Update: After a few more weeks this is much closer to Oriana. Smells so yummy. The citrus has calmed down and it's not overwhelming anymore - now it's an absolutely beautiful citrus, marshmallow, whipped cream, and raspberries. I am so obsessed with it. The performance is better than Oriana so I might just keep this and not even buy the OG but we will see!

This is a stunning dupe - better than the original. By stunning, I mean that the fragrance is Oriana, just amplified. Oriana is a mild, sweet fragrance that lasts for a short while. Hey Sweetie! is a bold, sweet fragrance that lasts all day. At first spray, this fragrance can be overwhelming and only vaguely resembles Oriana. After about 30 minutes, it starts to mellow out, but not disappear. To me, this is when it starts to smell like Oriana. Unlike Oriana, this fragrance hangs on through the day on my skin and for a couple of days on my clothes. I've compared them side-by-side and I honestly like Hey Sweetie! better.

This is almost exact to the original. I sprayed this on my left arm and the OG on my right and no one could tell which was which. Actually most people thought this one was the more expensive!. I would say about 98% similar DNA. It performs better too, as its more concentrated. This has a very very slightly more like soapy smell, at first. Once it settles they are indistinguishable between the two. I would 100% repurchase. Its a beautiful smell

98% dupe for Oriana. I like it more actually! Has incredible projection and staying power and I get lots of compliments. Smells like a sweet soft pink raspberry marshmallow and the dry down has an almost sweet laundry scent to it. Lasts on clothes and skin for me all day, and the atomizers from Dua are exceptional. I am headache prone and I do not find this scent to be headache inducing. Definitely recommend!

I’m a grown woman and this feels very youthful but I love it. Opening smells like smarties and then it becomes a bit deeper and warmer but still nearly gourmand sweet due to a fluffy marshmallow base. An excellent dupe for Oriana (which I do not own but have sampled in store). I worked out wearing this and it brought out the depth of the scent so I’m excited to see how she wears in summer!

Idk what happened with everyone else’s bottles but I can say with certainty that the one I received is a 95% perfect clone for the original PDM Oriana. If anything it’s maybe a little bit sweeter and more raspberry leaning than marshmallow. I can see why people say this is more synthetic smelling than the original but it’s a fantastic dupe for ppl who can’t afford the original.

This is definitely a sister to the original Oriana. It is so good! It’s sweet and it last longer. I love it I will say it is one of the closest other than Fuscia affair from Julianna fragrances. Hey sweetie is definitely better than all the other dupes so far.

Fruity marshmallow perfection quickly arrives after initial overwhelming burst of all notes. Must judge on skin, much different than paper tester.

Bubblegum-sweet like Love Don't be Shy/Dossier Floral Marshmallow and DUA Be In Love, but it also has a fresh soapy element from the bergamot - black currant, so it is fresher than LDBS. It is also more calming than Love Don't Be Shy due to the ambrette. The grapefruit intensifies the candy effect as in Bubble Forever Montale, but this one doesn't have neroli so it is not as sweet-indolic floral as Love Don't be Shy and Bubble Forever. At the projection and the drydown I smell a balsamic rose-like scent along with the bubblegum, similar to Delina's rose or the BBW Covered In Roses balsamic ambery rose scent, and it must stem from the raspberry as in DUA 11:11 where the raspberry gives a vintage floral-balsamic trait to the scent at the drydown. It becomes more soapy and floral-heady at the later drydown so that's a minus for me. With Parfums De Marly scents I always dislike their balsamic heady floral and soapy elements so I sold my DUA Dreamy Elixir for Cassili - too balsamic rose and heady too soapy-aldehydic like Boss Nuit but more heady. So that's my issue with Hey Sweetie too, but it's more bearable with the orange blossom-marshmallow bubblegum vein it has and I do like the soapy twist to the usual bubblegum LDBS scent.

I really only bought it because I was thought the name was so funny and the AI generated label made it seem like one of those fake perfumes you’d get on Canal St. I really just wanted to know if it was colored water in a bottle. Honestly, it’s not terrible. I’d call it a dupe of a dupe. It smell’s like Dossier’s dupe of LDBS. I don’t know if you can call a scent cute but it’s cute. It’s a nice floral gourmand. I really don’t hate it which is shocking.

This is a banger for Dua! I was asked from 6 feet away what I was wearing that smelled like a cupcake. If you’re not concerned with the subtleties present in the original and you just want the DNA, this has it in spades. The nuances aren’t there, though.

You have to like sweet to wear this one. It’s pink marshmallow pillows with a light floral touch. Imagine smelling powdered sugar all day. If you like that then this is for you.

Sad. This doesn’t smell like Oriana to me at all. It’s ok on it’s own but I wouldn’t call it a dupe by any means.

Just got this one in the mail from DUA and am so sad. It’s a straight up citrus bomb to my nose, I get no marshmallow, vanilla, or whipped cream, just a slightly green, sharp, citrus note. I have heard that these fragrances need to sit a few weeks to macerate so I am going to try that before re-selling it. Fingers crossed! I really wanted to try their version of Kilian Love Don’t be Shy, but now I’m scared. I also got Cotton Candy de Dua and Strawberry Cream Candy and same problem with those two, no creamy/vanilla sweetness to them!

Am I tripping or is this just a sweet candied orange. Marshmallow where? Raspberry where?! Is it in the back hiding somewhere bc... yea this NOT what i thought the notes would be and the reviews. Yall be lying. It’s just ORANGE. If this smells anything like Oriana then I know that Oriana is completely over hyped and smells like Orange. Smells like McDonald orange juice in a medium cup. If anyone is looking for a marshmallow perfume like me THIS IS NOT IT!! If you love orange get it.

Smells like a plastic doll, chemical and artificial, no hint of Oriana at all on first 2 sprays. I am hoping after sitting a few weeks it might develop any semblance, but suspect it will be a very long shot given the initial impression. I have Oriana and was hoping for a better performing version, the original lasts literally less than an hour on me, but is a gorgeous scent while it lasts. Crossing fingers HS evolves into a beauty with time!

Not the perfumer's fault. I haaate Orange Blossom and Neroli - thought the marshmallow and cream would come out to play but those flowers linger throughout.

I would say save up for the Real Oriana; a Sample of the Real Oriana or choose another Dupe House. This literally smells like Alcohol and Burnt Sugar. It smells Plastic. I absolutely HATE it. Now; that I have the real Oriana I’d say don’t waste Your money on this! It’s over Priced and not worth it!

Wow!! I already own Oriana but a friend recommended this brand so I thought why not. I’m shocked. It smells..better than Oriana to me. They are not exact dupes - Oriana is softer and more powdery, Hey Sweetie is more bold and orange blossom heavy. Orange blossom is one of my favourite notes so I ended up preferring this, and yes, I own the OG Oriana and Love Don’t Be Shy yet this is the best of them all in terms of performance. I’m so impressed that I’m even considering selling my bottle of Oriana.

If you a want a super amazing combination of fruity and floral notes, then Hey Sweetie! is the one. A very summery, fresh fragrance is in the fragrance market for us to enjoy it fully this season. Also, I find it long lasting as well. It stays for around more than 10 hours if the temperate is moderate.

This is Oriana on steroids!!! one my wrist side by side they smell so close i can barely differentiate them and best part is when Oriana stops smelling , Hey Sweetie is about to start its own journey!!!! can never justify buying Oriana with that performance!! Love me some Dua!!!

It’s a nice sweet floral but it is also very powdery. I am overwhelmed by it but I don’t dislike it. So if you like super sweet and powdery scent then this is for you. I haven’t smelled Oriana so I can’t compare but I love LDBS and think that it’s a bit similar.

I did a video on this on YouTube Rose Ayala Perfume Addict. It’s 95% close to the Original. The only downside is a little bit of a synthetic smell in the opening....other than that, great alternative, even though there’s a better one I mention in my video 😉

Sticky sweet orange blossom. So sweet my teeth hurt
