Is it just me, or are fragrance dupes everywhere now?

If you don’t already know, a fragrance dupe is a scent which smells exactly like a designer fragrance. They’re cheaper alternatives made for the sole purpose of smelling like a more expensive scent.
Dupe is simply short language for “duplicate”, i.e. a certain smell has been recreated or duplicated by someone else.
