Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opus XIV Royal Tobacco EDP
This one is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, Opus XIV is a masterpiece. Forget your typical sweet tobaccos - this is a bold, complex, and unashamedly powerful scent for confident individuals who aren't afraid to stand out. It's not for the faint of heart.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Triumph EDP
A budget take on Paco Rabanne Invictus Victory - the zesty pepper-and-lemon opening that dries to smoky incense, tonka and amber. Triumph captures the bold, night-out character but renders it flatter and skin-close, trading the original's sweet warmth for a quicker fade.

Season and Occasion Fit

Opus XIV Royal Tobacco

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its beast-mode performance and overtly strong, distinct character, Royal Tobacco is completely unsuitable for office wear. It excels in formal or special evening date settings where its bold projection and opulent aroma can be appreciated without overwhelming a small space.

Triumph

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The smoky, sweet amber-incense drydown belongs in autumn and winter; warm weather turns it heavy.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

A bold night-out scent that suits dates, evenings and formal wear more than daytime or sport.
