Since 2022, Tux & Cognac The Dua Brand has never stopped surprising. This is a unisex fragrance rooted in the chypre and east families. The nose behind this fragrance — Mahsam Raza. In perfume extract — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
Behind this fragrance stands the United States and its rich perfumery heritage. Tux & Cognac The Dua Brand — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The note pyramid of Tux & Cognac evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of The Dua Brand is evident from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Ambery, Citrus, Drinks and Spicy. The framework further includes Whiteflower, Wood, Floral and Gourmet.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the opening appears as one connected movement with a expressively spicy mood: Ambergris, Bergamot, Black Cognac, Black Pepper, Coriander, Lily of the Valley and Patchouli.
The heart and base are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The accord profile is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Amber with each one in a clear role. Secondary accord layers such as Spicy and Alcoholic expand the olfactory volume in the background.
Overall Tux & Cognac sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best experienced in wear.
