Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather Intense is incredibly divisive, with some hailing it as a superior, more complex version of the original, while others find it a 'mess of notes' and 'repulsive'. It's certainly not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but if you're into intense leathery animalics, it might just be your holy grail.
Italian Rawhide chases Tom Ford Tuscan Leather's raw, raspberry-laced leather icon. The saffron-and-jammy-raspberry opening over smoky leather and suede reads true to the brief, but as a budget dupe it lands flatter, with the original's bold, animalic depth and 12-hour wear softened.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and animalic leather accords make it unsuitable for the office but incredibly sexy for date nights or formal events. The strong, almost challenging nature isn't for casual wear.
Seasons
The smoky leather, amber and resin are rich, bold notes suited to autumn and winter, with a spring crossover.
Occasions
Its bold, sensual leather character favours evenings, dates and formal wear over sport or daytime casual.
