Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fabulous EDP
Divisive, polarising, and impossible to ignore. Some find it a masterpiece of complex leathery sophistication, others a medicinal baby wipe nightmare. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it scent that backs up its bold name.
Statement
Our Verdict - F'n Marvelous EDP
This one keeps Tom Ford's lavender-almond-leather backbone intact, but the leather note is softer and less confrontational than the original, which is famous for a love-or-hate split within the first minute.

Season and Occasion Fit

Fabulous

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Given its strong sillage and intense, luxurious profile, this is best suited for evening occasions like dates or formal events. It's too bold and potentially distracting for an office environment, and definitely not a gym scent.

F'n Marvelous

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm, leathery scent that reads best in cooler months, with enough weight for evening wear year-round.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Its bold, confident character suits dates and evening occasions more than the office or casual daytime wear.
