A*Men Pure Havane (2011, discontinued) built a gourmand tobacco-honey-cocoa reputation that spawned a small but consistent clone landscape, mostly among budget aromatic-tobacco houses rather than a single dominant 'superclone'. Reyane Tradition's Insurrection II Wild is the most consistently cited budget dupe across Fragrantica and Basenotes threads and YouTube reviews, though several posters note it needs months of maceration and leans sweeter/spicier with less cacao depth than the original. Dua Fragrances' 'When in Havana' is explicitly marketed against Pure Havane's vintage formulation and shows up repeatedly on review sites, but user reports on longevity/projection are inconsistent, pointing to batch variance. Smaller 'inspired-by' houses (KDJ Inspired, Perfume Parlour's A Gent 0011) also sell direct 1:1-style clones with thinner but positive review trails. A few frequently-surfacing 'similar' fragrances (Alexandria's UK 'Havana Tabac', Afnan Rare Carbon, Xerjoff Naxos) were checked and excluded: the UK Havana Tabac's actual note pyramid and marketing point to a Montabaco (Ormonde Jayne) clone rather than Pure Havane despite the name, Rare Carbon is community-consensus a Tom Ford Ombre Leather/Tuscan Leather dupe, and Naxos is a niche fragrance in a similar genre but priced above the original and explicitly described by reviewers as a different tier of quality, not a dupe. Overall: real, if modest, clone coverage — worth listing but with moderate confidence given thin/mixed threads on performance.
