Which Should You Buy?
Notorious is an absolute chameleon, equally likely to spark adoration as it is disdain. Forget the name, it's a classy, intriguing floral with a surprising gourmand twist that some find divine and others, well, just a bit off.
YZ interprets Paco Rabanne's XS pour Homme - that spicy-woody-floral masculine balancing fresh fruit and pink pepper against a sweetened woody base. The dupe captures the spicy-sweet character but reads flatter and less complex than the 1993 designer.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its moderate sillage and longevity, coupled with its elegant, warm spicy-floral profile, make it suitable for office and sophisticated evenings. However, its distinctive character might be a bit much for casual wear, and it lacks the freshness for sport.
Seasons
The spicy warmth and sweet woody base suit autumn and winter, while the fruity-peppery opening keeps it wearable in spring.
Occasions
Confident and spicy-sweet, it suits evenings, dates and casual wear more than the office.
