Tuxedo is YSL's luxury option and the only unisex scent on our list. It belongs to the Le Vestiaire des Parfums collection, and YSL Beauty describes an elegant and sharp patchouli fragrance with earthy, woody tones. The published pyramid is the most detailed here: violet leaf, bergamot and coriander on top; rose, lily of the valley and black pepper at the heart; and ambergris, patchouli and vanilla bourbon in the base. It is listed as a bestseller and comes with a complimentary drawstring pouch. Price is the problem for most buyers: $340 for 4.2 oz and $195 for 1.2 oz, about double Y Eau de Parfum per bottle, with no small travel spray. Its 4.3 average across 423 reviews on YSL's page also trails the Y and MYSLF scents. Pick it if you want a shared, less common YSL rather than a classic men's cologne. We compared published notes, sizes and prices and did not wear-test any fragrance.
