Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Youth-Dew Eau de Parfum

Divisive and unapologetically bold, Youth-Dew is a spiced, aldehydic powerhouse. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention, refusing to blend in with modern trends. If you're after a statement, this beast has your name on it.

Our Verdict - Rio Eau de Parfum

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Tom Ford Black Orchid (2006) - truffle, orchid and patchouli translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Best For:

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Youth-Dew is a beast-mode perfume with huge projection and longevity, making it unsuitable for an office setting where it could overpower others. However, its sophisticated, rich, and warm spicy character makes it perfect for formal events, date nights, and special occasions, especially in colder weather. Many reviewers highlight its 'evening' and 'winter' qualities, advising minimal application even then.
