New this week: Tabac Cacao and Violet Stain
Tabac Cacao, our take on Tobacco Chocolat by Tom Ford
Orange and akigalawood open it. The heart is dark chocolate and cacao. Then tobacco, patchouli and Peru balsam settle in. Picture a square of dark chocolate eaten next to a pipe-smoking grandad. For anyone who loves tobacco scents but wants something richer than vanilla.
It is in stock now. Shop Tabac Cacao, £40. Prefer vanilla? Tobacco Vanilla, our take on Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, is the same house and the same tobacco thread, gone vanilla instead of chocolate. Full breakdown: Tom Ford Tobacco Chocolat dupe UK.
Violet Stain, our take on Purple Stain by Born to Stand Out
Saffron, cinnamon bark, nutmeg and ginger, then caramel and vanilla, then oud and patchouli. Hot spice melting into smoke. For autumn nights and anyone who already wears a sweet oud and wants it spicier. See Violet Stain, £40. Read the Purple Stain dupe page, or the whole house in the best Born to Stand Out dupes.
New in October 2026
Night Rail, our take on Chandigarh Express by Ex Nihilo
Cardamom, mandarin and bergamot, then a soft worn-in leather with jasmine and davana, over vetiver, benzoin and tonka. A first-class train seat at dusk. For the man who wants leather without the biker jacket. See Night Rail, £40. Full page: Chandigarh Express dupe UK.
Coral Sea, our take on Oceania by Roja Parfums
Five citruses with rosemary, thyme and lavender, then geranium and jasmine, over moss, vetiver and a soft orris. A salty sea breeze, bright and clean. For summer weddings and anyone who wants fresh that still feels expensive. See Coral Sea, £40. Full page: Roja Oceania dupe UK.
Verdict, our take on Decision by Amouage
Pink pepper, cardamom and bergamot, then frankincense, juniper and myrrh, over cedar, patchouli and warm vanilla. Clean smoke over something soft, with a gin-like snap. For the office that allows a bit of edge. See Verdict, £40. Full page: Amouage Decision dupe UK.
New in late September 2026
Dervish, our take on Demon Dancer by Ex Nihilo
Tart rhubarb, cool peppermint and blood orange, then orange blossom and blackcurrant, drying creamy and musky. Fizzy, green and loud. For people who want to be noticed in a crowded bar. See Dervish, £40. Full page: Demon Dancer dupe UK.
Vanille 21, our take on Vanille Planifolia Extrait 21 by Guerlain
Spice first, then a warm ambery resin, then a soft powdery musk. Grown-up vanilla, not cupcake vanilla. For vanilla lovers who have outgrown the sweet shop. Rated 5.0/5 from 1 review so far. See Vanille 21, £40. Full page: Vanille Planifolia dupe UK.
Shore Hut, our take on Beach Hut Man by Amouage
Real mint and sharp galbanum, then damp moss, vetiver and ivy, over patchouli and myrrh. It smells like the woods behind a beach, not the beach. Green, earthy, loud. Two sprays is plenty. See Shore Hut, £40. Full page: Beach Hut Man dupe UK.
Sunbeam, our take on Sunshine Man by Amouage
Orange brandy and lavender, clary sage and juniper, then vanilla, tonka and cedar. A barbershop scent that has had a drink. For a cold-morning commute that needs cheering up. Its natural partner is Shore Hut. See Sunbeam, £40. Full page: Sunshine Man dupe UK.
High Wave, our take on High Frequency by Initio
Sweet almond with jasmine and magnolia, then heliotrope and vanilla, smoothed by sandalwood. Marzipan in a clean white shirt. For anyone who wants sweet but tidy. See High Wave, £40. Full page: High Frequency dupe UK.
Frisson, our take on Addictive Vibration by Initio
Honey and apple blossom, then orange blossom and white flowers, drying to soft vanilla and a warm skin musk. Like a honeyed apple. Sweet, not sticky. For date nights when you want to be leaned into. See Frisson, £40. Full page: Addictive Vibration dupe UK.
