Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tabacco Toscano Eau de Parfum

Tabacco Toscano is a divisive one, beloved by many for its gentle charm but equally criticised for its fleeting presence. Some call it an elegant masterpiece, others a weak, overpriced disappointment. Best if you like your tobacco subtle to the point of intimacy.

Our Verdict - Idole Eau de Parfum

Lubin's Idole EDP is a divisive one. Many find it a rich, boozy, sophisticated amber-wood symphony, but a good proportion are left underwhelmed by its projection and longevity. A 'love it or leave it' kinda scent, with a price tag to match its luxurious bottle.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date

Its subtle projection makes it ideal for office and casual wear, where it won't overpower. Its intimate sillage and warm tobacco-vanilla balance make it suitable for a relaxed date, though it might be a bit too understated for a formal event.

Occasions

Also Works:

Casual

Its rich, boozy, and spicy character makes it less suitable for the office or sport. However, its sophisticated and sensual allure, while potentially lacking in sillage for some, is perfect for dates and evening formal events.
