Blue Tuxedo

Blue Tuxedo by the Italian house Basile, released in 2024, is a woody floral with a cool, spiced elegance, positioned as a masculine fragrance. Woody and floral impressions are shared by everyone who describes it, and about half also find it spicy or amber-like.

Juniper berries give the opening a dry, crisp, gin-like freshness, and cardamom adds a cool, slightly green spice. Iris and violet form the heart, both cool and powdery, with the violet adding a faintly sweet, cosmetic softness that gives the scent its polished, formal feel. Cashmere wood sits underneath with a smooth, velvety warmth, and incense adds a dry, lingering smoke that keeps the drydown from being too soft.

Blue Tuxedo suits autumn and winter and evening occasions, and the name points to how it reads: a dressed-up, understated scent for dinners and events. It will appeal to someone who likes iris and finds most masculine fragrances too fresh or too sweet.
