Le Labo's The Matcha 26 (a boutique/City Exclusive released in 2021, not 2024) is a woody-green unisex composition built on a soft, slightly creamy matcha tea accord lifted by bitter orange and fig, grounded by vetiver and cedar — contemplative and airy rather than sweet or gourmand. Because it is a niche, somewhat under-the-radar Le Labo, there is no deep years-old Reddit dupe consensus with side-by-side comparisons; the clone landscape is dominated by directly-marketed 'inspired-by' releases from established dupe houses rather than organically crowned community favorites. The two best-substantiated options are Dua Fragrances 'Matcha Ritual' (a well-regarded extrait interpretation matching the exact note pyramid) and Alexandria Fragrances 'Morning Matcha' (marketed as a near-1:1 clone, though buyers flag inconsistent longevity). Other names surface in single-source listicles — Dossier, Montagne 'Eau Matcha', KDJ oils — but lack independent corroboration, and BDK Gris Charnel is repeatedly cited as a similar/adjacent niche scent (fig, tea, woods) rather than a true affordable clone. Treat this as an emerging, thin-consensus category and confidence as moderate-low.
