Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tuxedo
Divisive yet adored, Tuxedo by YSL is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a sophisticated, spicy marvel; for others, it's a weak, overpriced miss. Sample before you commit to this hyped scent.

Our Verdict - Turathi Brown
Afnan Turathi Brown is a divisive one. Many rave about its rich, sophisticated scent and incredible value, hailing it as a top-tier Tuxedo alternative. Others find its opening too harsh or just 'stinky'. Be warned: this isn't a safe blind buy, but let it macerate and you might just fall in love.
