Kantara for Men by Albin du Roy
Michael Jordan Legend (lighter version)
I would recommend these various spicy, woody, and gourmand types:
Guerlain Bois D'Armenie
Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin
Chanel Egoiste
Montale Red Aoud
People of the Labyrinths Luctor et Emergo
You might also want to sample the Frapin and Serge Lutens lines.
Body Kouros is very similar.
keepin' it musky
I'm not alone on this one

Where is your suggestion?
Honestly, give Guerlain's Shalimar a try, it has the same powdery vanilla but it lacks Jaipur's cinnamon on top:

Body Kouros is similar. Maybe some people don't realize this is not the same as Kouros.
You may wish to try the Jaipur Homme Eau de Parfum instead of the EdT. It does kick a little more.
Consider Habit Rouge, Lalique pour Homme (Lion) or the original Comme des Garçons EdP.
Passion Men - Franck Olivier.
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
#BBOG!
Sounds like the issue is olfactory fatigue, not the scent. Note-wise, Obsession for Men seems to be closest, though I only have vintage and whatever is out there now may not smell that much like it, for all I know.

Remotely similar, imo:
Guerlain Habit Rouge EDP and Shalimar
Lalique PH EDP
"I love fragrances because they provide a sheer endless variety: there is a scent for every occasion, mood or feeling. Standing before my collection matching a perfume to my needs is one of the most enjoyable things in my day..."
Top 16 Spring :: Amouage Epic : Dior ESP : TF Grey Vetiver : Mancera Aoud Cafe : Amouage Honour : YSL Rive Gauche : AdP Colonia Oud : Amouage Myths : Montale Full Incense : Amouage Journey : L'AP Timbuktu : Amouage Memoir : Rochas Lui : LIDG : Cartier Must : Dior Dune
Guerlain's Heritage.
Maybe Bvlgari Black.
Michael Jordan and Body Kouros are nothing like Jaipur IMO. Although not the same smell, I find Habit Rouge to carry a similar feel; i.e. slightly old-school, somewhat powdery and very elegant.
Shalimar, Pi to some extend.
IIRC Black, Jaipur and Body Kouros are all by Annick Menardo.
I have all three and I definitely smell similarities in their bases although they each have something else happening on top. In the case of Black it's the famous 'rubber' or rather lapsang souchong smoky note, in Jaipur it's the cinnamon, while I find that Body Kouros is the least interesting. I like all three but I love Black and Jaipur. I think the OP should try Body Kouros first and Black after that. Many people find Black a bit challenging while Body Kouros is far easier to like.
I think the OP has already tried the EDP:
Ask people around you if they smell it. The EDP lasts 12 hours on me, easily.
in the same realm
Opium EdP
Original Santal
By the way can someone compare the EDP and EDT of Jaipur, please? Especially about the sweetness and other important aspects?
For cinnamon nothing beats egoiste.
Midnight in Paris might be another one.
Absolutely not to Body Kouros.
The closest match to Jaipur Pour Homme is Diesel Zero Plus Au Masculin. They are nearly clones of each other.
Amouage Gold.
If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch
Diesel Zero Plus Au Masculin is also a good idea, but if he's having olfactory fatigue with JH it will likely be worse with ZP. However, ZP is still cheap these days so he could spray himself 20 times with it and see what happens. At that point, if he thought it had disappeared in half an hour he could ask people around him to verify that they couldn't smell anything.

Can't think of any scent that smells exactly like it -- maybe Shalimar a bit.
More importantly, if your skin 'eats' the cloying Jaipur Homme you are going to suffer the same fate with practically all others.
Seconding especially Heritage and Habit Rouge.
