Let me preface this and say that if you don’t like patchouli, then none of these frags will be for you because they are 100% patchouli-heavy fragrances. I personally LOVE the smell of patchouli and am digging all four of these.

Additional Product Information So today I’ve got a bit of a conundrum for you. You’ve got one fragrance from Yves Saint Laurent called Tuxedo that’s the ultimate prize in both quality and likability (just not in the price department) and you have two other houses competing for those same accolades and some of which are…potentially better? Years ago when I was dabbling in Dua Fragrances, I had bought an Aventus/Tuxedo hybrid and was mildly impressed. I'd never smelled Tuxedo, but I found the resinous, rosey, and green smell of it to be pretty intriguing. Ultimately I wasn't a fan of the blend and sold it. Lattafa, Your Ultimate Destination for Luxurious & Exotic Home Grown Fragrances in the Middle-east and across 61 countries of the world. Kismet comes right out of the gate smelling exactly like Tuxedo, and it’s really that patchouli and vanilla that are the dominating forces behind that similarity. But along with those notes the fragrance also has woody notes, nutmeg, coffee, cacao (chocolate) and vetiver. No citrus like the previous two, no pepper like the previous two and certainly no form of amber to speak of. So, while the opening smells like Tuxedo, it’s the dry down that starts to change for me in a negative way. I’m not sure what supporting note makes it unpleasant for my nose or a combination of multiple notes, but Kismet just doesn’t sit well on my skin. In terms of closeness, yes, it’s closer to Tuxedo than Moustache, but not one I’d consider owning.Lattafa Perfumes Industries L.L.C is Dubai's leading premium luxury perfumery of authentic Arabic fragrances and it makes the world of scent sophistication available for everyone looking to shop for perfumes across the world. Besides the obvious notes of patchouli, amber, and vanilla, I think what The Tux really gets right is that subtle, masculine rose. It gives it this romantic addictive quality. The whole composition just flows together. It's warm, but kinda ozonic too. That little strip of paper was something special for sure and couldn't help inhaling from it.

What’s even more surprising is that The Tux even lasts LONGER in longevity than the previous three above. So, for that value, you’re getting a next-to-designer-brand-esque fragrance for pennies on the dollar. Overall, I’d give this a 9/10. Great fragrance for the money without question. Final Thoughts The Tux 100ml EDP (Eau De Parfum) By Maison Alhambra Perfumes Also known as Tux 100ml EDP By Maison Alhambra PerfumesInspired by the Arabic words, ‘Latif’ for kindness and ‘Lateefa’ for pleasant, Lattafa resonates with the luxury and elegance of the Arabian culture and it vividly captures the essence of its glorious heritage in its captivating fragrance. As the evening progresses, The Tux by Maison Alhambra reveals its rich base notes of ambergris accord, patchouli heart, and vanilla bourbon. This enchanting combination adds depth and warmth to the fragrance, creating a long-lasting, memorable impression that is guaranteed to captivate those around you. I couldn’t believe this either, so I had to do my own research, minus a lab coat…and a lab. I grabbed 4 decants from Decant House; The OG – YSL Tuxedo, Kismet by Maison Alhambra, Moustache by Rochas and finally The Tux by Maison Alhambra. First of all, can we talk about the fact that Maison Alhambra has TWO fragrances that smell almost identical to each other just under different names and different bottles?
