A gorgeous, semi-floral sweetness... together with a little ambroxin
I saw a Cubaknows video where he talked about this scent, and how they’re FINALLY releasing a 100ml... AND he had a discount code, so I thought “what the hell”... and BOOM!! Blind buy via internet link...

A week or so, and a few tries, and here we are....

Me LIKEY!!

You HAVE to have a taste for the sweet ones, or it isn’t gonna work for you, but if you do, you’re gonna be STOKED. It is definitely unisex, so some might think it isn’t masculine enough, but that’s a personality thing. There’s something in this that kind of feels like Layton (NO, they don’t smell the SAME, but there IS something in this blend that lets out a similar wavelength...)

The projection is great (easy 3-4ft radius for 2-3 hours), and the sillage lingers there proudly... longevity is also fantastic, as it performs for a solid 8+ hours... I’m definitely happy I made the investment.

Sorry, but I cannot say that I’ve ever smelled the YSL “Tuxedo” fragrance this is trying to replicate, so I won’t be giving that comparison.

On its own though, as it is? It is FANTASTIC. A very sweet, signature worthy aroma. I’m gonna sport this while there’s still some “winter” temperatures left in Texas.

Obsessed with violets
Adorned with rose
A bit creamier
Filled with sweet patchouli
Close to Tuxedo yet so far
I prefer its inspiration more

A little wannabe tuxedo, but it doesn't measure up. Rose, pepper, violet & vanilla are nice, but the patchouli is too strong for me.

The copy of YSL Tuxedo holds up very well against the original. I find it creamier, while the original is more sparkling. Both are great.

Has "Fucking Fabulous" vibes, also sweet-spicy, but without the slightly dirty aspect. Tux? More like a cashmere sweater. A feel-good scent.

When I compare YSL Tuxedo, Moustache, and DUA, I find DUA to be the weakest of the three. Too sweet for me. I prefer Moustache.

Almost 1:1 "Le Vestiaire - Tuxedo | Yves Saint Laurent", I find it a bit sweeter, creamier, which suits it well! With significantly...

Too much sweet patchouli for my nose like in A*Men
Pepper is also present, so overall it’s exactly the direction I want to avoid.

Moustache edP on steroids. If you love this but need performance, go for it. Drydown is exactly the same. Not worth the extra cost for me.

Still noticeable on clothes days later. Very pleasant all-rounder with great performance.

Very similar to YSL Tuxedo, I find it creamier through patchouli and vanilla - typical of H/S Dua, definitely wearable all year round.
