- Smells like: sharp rhubarb and grapefruit over saffron, ginger, suede and leather, with a vetiver and amber base.
- Best for: anyone who loves a modern, spicy-leather niche scent without the niche price tag.
- Honest note: inspired by, not an exact clone.
Xerjoff is one of the best-known Italian niche houses, and Torino25 sits in its Torino collection, a series of fragrances inspired by the city of Turin. It has a loyal following for its unusual mix of tart fruit, spice and soft leather, but at about £180 for 50ml (Harrods, current at the time of writing) it is a serious spend for something you may only wear on certain days.
What does Xerjoff Torino25 actually smell like?
- Top: Rhubarb, Grapefruit, Saffron, Ginger
- Heart: Suede, Juniper, Leather
- Base: Vetiver, Amber, Musk
It opens bright and slightly tart, with rhubarb and grapefruit lifted by warm ginger and saffron. As it settles, the suede and leather come forward with a cool, gin-like juniper edge, before drying down to a clean, earthy vetiver and amber base with a soft musk. It is fresh and spicy rather than sweet, and it works equally well in a suit or a jumper.
Why people look for a Torino25 dupe
The main reason is price. Niche perfume is wonderful, but paying around £180 for one bottle is hard to justify when you want a few scents in rotation. Many people also want to try a style before committing, which is where a 5ml sample at £14.99 helps. Others simply enjoy the idea of wearing a similar vibe for everyday use while saving the original for special occasions.

Introducing 25 Tors - Insp by Xerjoff Torino 25
25 Tors is our own composition inspired by the Torino25 family: zesty and spiced at the start, leathery in the heart and earthy-amber underneath. It comes as a 5ml sample for £14.99, a 12ml roller or 15ml for £19.99, a 30ml for £34.99 and a 50ml for £44.95. As an Extrait de Parfum it carries a higher concentration of fragrance oils than a typical eau de parfum, which means a richer, more rounded character and, usually, better staying power.

Being upfront about the comparison
We never claim 25 Tors is identical to Xerjoff Torino25, and it is not a replica or a clone. Different ingredients, different formulation and a higher concentration all mean it will smell similar in spirit rather than note-for-note. If you adore the original, treat 25 Tors as an affordable alternative with a familiar feel, and try the 5ml sample first to see whether it suits you.
Longevity and projection
As an Extrait, you can expect good longevity on skin, often many hours, with a moderate to strong presence in the first couple of hours that softens into a close, warm skin scent. Performance always varies with skin type, weather and how you apply it, so a few sprays on pulse points and clothing usually gets the best result.
The verdict
If you love the tart, spicy suede-and-leather style of Xerjoff Torino25 but not the price, 25 Tors is well worth a try from £14.99. Prefer something fresher and herbal from the same range? Our guide to the Xerjoff Torino21 dupe, 21 Tors is a good next read. Shop 25 Tors →
