The tuxedo "borrowed" for less than 20 euros fits perfectly in Monaco! :-)
Yes, this fragrance is supposed to be a clone of Le Vestiaire - Tuxedo, just like Turathi (Brown) and Moustache Eau de Parfum. However, it is the only one with the same ingredients as the original and should therefore be somewhat suitable as a supposed "twin brother". The problem for me in comparison: I don't know the extremely expensive Tuxedo and have never had a sample of it to hand. So I'm concentrating entirely on Penthouse Larvotto, which I bought for an incredible 18.60 euros.
Spicy-sweet is a very good description. After a lightning-fast alcoholic opening, the fragrance unfolds in a very linear fashion. I find it difficult to pick out individual components, but a vanilla-like sweetness forms the foundation of a masculine blend of herbs, which is given a tangy but never sharp note by bergamot and pepper. As it progresses, the floral notes of rose and lily of the valley add grace and elegance.
The nice thing about it: even though the Tuxedo (as in YSL) means tuxedo, I don't necessarily think of a posh evening party when I think of Penhouse Larvotto. Larvotto is probably a district in Monaco on the Côte d'Azur. The rich and famous probably live here too, especially in the penthouse, but they are welcome to wear this fragrance for any occasion and, as far as I'm concerned, at any time of year.
Penthouse Larvotto is dignified in every respect, and I mean that in a positive way. We are dealing here with a persistent male flatterer who, due to his class, has no need to play to the fore with outstretched elbows, as the elegant basic DNA cannot be compared with any other I know.
I can recommend this budget perfume as a blind buy for anyone who wants to surround themselves with an elegant and multi-faceted fragrance aura for all kinds of occasions.
