Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rouge Smoking Extrait
Rouge Smoking Extrait is a divisive beast. For some, it's a sexier, darker cherry ode, a true 'beast mode' scent. For others, it's a synthetic, screechy misstep, a 'hot mess' of ambroxan that falls short of the original.

Our Verdict - Il Padrino EDP
This one's a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent that's often compared to some big hitters. Many find it a rich, boozy-fruity masterpiece with beast-mode performance, while others find the drydown cheap, synthetic or just too much. Definitely sample first, as this isn't for the faint of heart.
