Rifaaqat Adorn captures the spicy-floral opening and woody-vanilla drydown of Tuxedo quite competently, with the bergamot and black pepper creating a similar crisp entrance. However, the clone's vanilla and amber bases tend to feel slightly sweeter and less nuanced than YSL's sophisticated bourbon vanilla-ambergris blend, making it read as less refined in the late wear.
The clone performs admirably in the top and heart notes but lacks the subtle complexity of the original's base, with a notably sweeter vanilla projection. Longevity is comparable, though sillage on the clone tends to be slightly softer overall.
What people who wear Paris Corner Rifaaqat Adorn report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“Good, but not great clone of Tuxedo. Quality of a scent seems fine, but there is an addition of some woody note that is a bit stinky.While the Tux/Winsome smell like a great Tuxedo clone, this one feels almost like a clone of Tux/Winsome. Bigger departure from original DNA while still smelling like Tuxedo. More sweet and sticky than others, smells a bit juvenile to me.It seems really good until you compare it with The Tux or OG. Try for yourself and see...”
“Picked it up for 20$ cad. At first it smelled very herby and rancid. I let it sit for a month and now it smells like smooth herbs with a little bit of smoke. I sprayed YSL Tuxedo in store and compared and they are very close. The YSL might just be a bit smoother but for the price I paid this is very nice. It does indeed smell like a man in a tuxedo or a suit. Very high class.If you can find it for less than 30$ (it's 50ml) get it and try it out.”
“I don't get why people are saying that this has strong pepper.As a pepper note love I'm sure I can't detect it here, so it must be batch variation.That being said, this is very nice, smooth, elegant and classy smell.It kinda has that oldschool elevated smell, with moderate longevity and weaker projection.Don't get me wrong, this type of fragrance is okay having a more intimate projection since the setting in which you'd typicaly wear it would be a date night at a fancy restaurant, or something like that.”
