Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Noir EDT
Tom Ford Noir EDT is a divisive beast. Some adore its classic, sophisticated charm, comparing it to storied fragrances, while others dismiss it as generic or overly dated. If you're after a refined take on a vintage vibe, this might be for you, but be prepared for strong opinions from those around you.

Our Verdict - Sea Cyan EDP
Sea Cyan chases Versace Pour Homme Dylan Blue - the same fresh aquatic-citrus opening over an ambroxan-and-patchouli base. The dupe captures the clean, versatile blue-fragrance vibe but renders flatter and softer-projecting than the original.
