Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Pure XS Night
A divisive beast of a fragrance. Some swear by its unique caramel-cacao warmth for nights out, but others find its intense sweetness and pronounced ginger-ginseng opening a bit much, veering into 'old man' territory or even 'Chinese herbal medicine'. Try before you buy.

Our Verdict - Waqar
If you're after a warm, inviting spice bomb that's a dead ringer for a certain Tom Ford Private Blend, Rasasi's Waqar is your budget-friendly ticket. It's a confident, slightly boozy gourmand that delivers on luxury without the eye-watering price tag.

Season and Occasion Fit

Pure XS Night

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and sweet, heavy accords make it too much for an office setting where subtlety is key. However, its seductive warmth and good longevity are perfect for date nights and evening casual wear, as many reviews suggest it gets compliments in these contexts. It's too sweet for a formal occasion and certainly not suitable for sport.

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This fragrance is a powerhouse of warm spices and gourmand notes, making it too rich and enveloping for an everyday office scent. Its inviting warmth, however, makes it perfect for intimate date nights and sophisticated formal events.
