Santa Maria Novella Melograno opens with Bergamot, Orange and Spices; a heart of Pomegranate, Rose and Ylang-Ylang; drying down to Oakmoss, Labdanum, Patchouli and Musk, from notes Santa Maria Novella (official) publishes. Those notes read as citrus, fresh, floral, spicy, amber, woody, the coarse families Santa Maria Novella (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to Melograno by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke Melograno, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.

Santa Maria Novella Melograno is listed as a men's fragrance by the retailer. That's a marketing label, not a rule: fragrance has no gender, and plenty of "men's" scents are worn by anyone. We show how it's sold and leave the wearing to you.

Amouage Jubilation Xxv (shares Labdanum, Orange, Oakmoss); Prada Amber (shares Labdanum, Orange, Rose); Tiziana Terenzi Arethusa (shares Pomegranate, Orange, Rose). These share specific notes with Melograno, a closer match than a shared accord family. We rank them by how many of Melograno's cited notes they actually share, weighting rarer notes heavier than ubiquitous ones. Each is its own fragrance with real, sourced notes, not a copy of Melograno, and has its own page.
