Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, polarising, and impossible to ignore. Some find it a masterpiece of complex leathery sophistication, others a medicinal baby wipe nightmare. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it scent that backs up its bold name.
No. 291 leans hard into the leather-almond signature that made Tom Ford's F**king Fabulous so divisive, but smooths out the sharp, polarising edge into a rounder, more wearable amber-leather blend that trades boldness for approachability.

Note weights are our estimate from each note's place in the pyramid, not the share of the formula. Brands do not publish formulations.
Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Given its strong sillage and intense, luxurious profile, this is best suited for evening occasions like dates or formal events. It's too bold and potentially distracting for an office environment, and definitely not a gym scent.
Seasons
Rich leather and amber notes are best suited to cold-weather evenings rather than warm-weather daytime wear.
Occasions
Bold and sweet, this fits evenings and special occasions far better than office or casual daytime settings.
Similarity Breakdown
Our estimate of how alike these two fragrances smell, calculated from their published notes. It is a position on our scale, not a measured percentage of shared smell.
