Which Should You Buy?
This is a bold, modern take on vanilla, polarising some with its spicy, leathery opening but ultimately delivering a seductive depth with stellar performance. Not for the faint-hearted, it stands out from the crowd.
Tomcat mirrors YSL Babycat's pepper-incense-suede-vanilla structure, but front-loads a much more aggressive pepper blast where the original leads with an accessible bourbon-vanilla sweetness, making Tomcat louder on skin and better suited to fabric.
