Voux Zingy

Testing this out for a day or so compared to Torino 21, which I own a full bottle of, here is what I think: Getting the obvious out of the way--up close on skin, those two fragrances are quite different. The thing with many clones is, on skin, they can be sharp, fuzzy, aggressive, etc. That's how Voux Zingy behaves. It's missing that fresh lemony top that Torino has, or at least it's coming across differently in Voux. It honestly feels that either they're not using the same quality of spearmint or that it doesn't have the other things added to it that Torino has that makes the spearmint smoother. Yes, I think that it is the case that because Torino has a different blend, the spearmint and Torino comes across as higher quality. Voux Zingy has an herbal greeness that can go slightly bitter. This is when smelled up close: the weird thing is when I smell Voux zingy in the air, it smells way more similar to Torino than on skin or clothes. Weird. But that's what I get from it. Some clones behave that way. Second issue I would bring up is that zingy doesn't to stick around that long and it does not project; when sniffing them side by side, zingy is very flat. Also, I think whereas I can smell Torino 21 for hours and hours after I spray it, zingy makes me a little nose blind. I still think it might be worth picking up a bottle just to spritz yourself before you go into a store or office, or wherever you work and then refresh later. It's cheap enough and I think it can stand alone on its own if you don't smell it up close :) In the air, not bad at all.

I compared this with Plantine Blanc and Torino 21 (on Plantine Blanc's Fagrantica page). I own all three fragrances and wear them regularly. I've always loved Tor 21, and it gets me the most compliments out of all the colognes I have. I'll make it short: Plantine Blanc is definitely closer to Tor 21 because it captures that lemony-mint cocktail opening better than Voux. Voux Zingy, betraying its name, is not as Zingy as Plantine Blanc or Torino 21, it feels like it's got more bergamot than lemon. Voux also gives me some floral vibes, but just ever so slightly. It has an ozonic quality not present in either of the other two. The thing about Voux Zingy is that the spearmint can come off a little too strong at times, and will go dark green herbal. The notes voted for herbal come in last place if you look above, but I think that the votes for it should be much higher. However, It is the most tame of the three in terms of projection and it's honestly smoother than Plantine, but it is also flat. Plantine is able to push more, and in the air, I think you'll get a close vibe to Torino 21. In summary, although Voux Zingy doesn't quite nail Tor 21 like Plantine does, bu it has its own nice qualities, that ever so slight floral/ozonic note. Even though I get more spa than fragrance from it, I still like to wear it and would still mark it a 5/5 because of its uniqueness.

Absolutely beautiful dupe of Xerjoff Torino 21 - one of the best purchases of the year for me. Opens with a really strong spearmint (which is a vastly underused note in fragrances imho). Now it's not exactly the same spearmint as used in the original fragrance but it's close enough. That is mixed with a citrus combo that is sometimes sharp and other times fruity. In the mid you get the basil and a soothing verbena to give it a bit of a herbal bite. The spearmint note really is the main player and lasts for the duration of the fragrance so you have go to love mint to really appreciate this and I would say it's strictly a warmer weather fragrance. This maybe leans a bit more masculine than the original but I would say it's still a very unisex composition. Presentation is also first rate - a nice velvet style bottle with a very good atomiser. Performance is superb - 2hrs of strong projection followed with another 5hrs of personal scent bubble. Easily a 9/10 for me. I also tried the Aromatix dupe and this is way better and far closer to the original. I suspect Torino 21 is going to have a lot of attention in 2026 but this is the best dupe available on the market right now.

Oh my! Let it macerate! 1. Shower 2. Slather on the C.O. Bigelow lemon body cream from Amazon. 3. OVERSPRAY!😜 So fresh, light enough to go crazy on a hot humid day. Yes, you will go anosmic but it will be there without being obnoxious, although it's a personal bubble, not a projector. I have T21 & have compared side by side. It's very close, a bit more basil-y than T21. And it's reasonable that something *with* mint like T21 is going to be a little more minty. After maceration it's a good bit closer. I added a spritz of T21 over the Zingy & it was fabulous. I feel like I can enjoy the T21 DNA without breaking the bank or rationing myself. Folks, it is what it is, for a good price. I would say this is completely unisex & is refreshing on a wilting day. I would say safe for office, but definitely not date night or formal occasions. I think it would be great for the gym.

The name is appropriate. It's fresh, fruity, and effervescent. Not a loud or strong projector. Lasts all day, but sits close to the skin. Highly noticeable in confined spaces (people really notice it when they enter a room). Compliment-getter. Excellent for warm spring/summer days. Perfectly office appropriate and for casual occasions; I don't see this as a formal fragrance, due to its playful vibe -- but what the heck, wear it whenever. Leans slightly masculine. Pick this up if you're in the market for a happy summer fragrance.

I love this. Herbaceous, green, citrussy and bright without smelling like a cleaning product. I would say this is unisex leaning ever so slightly masculine, but not much. I’m a female who likes citrussy, fresh and aquatic fragrances (without any sort of melon accord, blerk!) and this suits my summer preferences to a tee! It’s slightly savoury, but the musk softens it a little and gives it some refinement. I’ll be interested to see how it develops after a few months, but to my nose this is a goodie straight out of the box.

This has definitely the Torino 21 dna. I'm surprised mint isn't listed as a note. The opening is my lease favorite part : very green minty/basil (almost like toothpaste), but the dry down is very nice : green, citrus scent with a good dose of musk. Perfect for the summer days, unisex for sure. I would say, this is 85% similar to Torino 21 from Xerjoff. Voux Zingy has more of a green and slightly spicy, herbaceous dry down compared to Torino 21. Longevity is about 3-4h, but this needs maceration for sure.

I absolutely love the opening smell. Very fresh and very uplifting. The dry down is nice but it doesn't have that 'wow' factor that other fragrances have. Performance is decent for a fresh fragrance (around 4 hours), and the projection is also decent but definitely not amazing. Overall it's a good pickup for the price. If you want something that will get you noticed I would go for something else, but if you're just looking for something that smells nice this is definitely a good pickup.

Is a fresh vibrant perfume with uplifting citrusy, herbal profile. It opens with zesty basil, bergamot, Italian citron, and lemon, followed by a floral heart of jasmine and verbena, and a clean musk base. Its uplifting, green, and citrusy scent, often describe as "Mojito like" it to a fresh cocktail or spa experience. Inspired from Torino 21's and a very good value for the money. You need to leave it a few weeks after first use to mature and will be better, smoother.

Beginning of spring now in London and this was my choice! My taste is usually a white floral, sweet perfume. But sometimes, specifically when sun is out and the day is bright, I want something like this, citrus, clean, a little bit soapy, super pleasant, the opening is definitely citrus focused, but the basil gives a soapy creaminess, the flowers light it up making it a great sunny fragrance. Perfectly unissex! Lovely scent.

Unmistakably a Torino21 clone, and a good one at that. Not quite 1:1, but it will get you about 85-90% of the way there with perhaps slightly more basil and less lemon than Torino21 when comparing them side by side. Not as smooth as it's inspiration, but still very well blended and not too synthetic smelling for something that is only a fifth of the price of Torino21. Great work from Paris Corner.

Nose Note #749 Very similar to Platine Blanc, but just not as impressive. Maybe I'm biased. This indeed has more of a basil note on top than lime. Doesn't feel as naturalistic. Performance-wise Platine Blanc may have a lead, but overall they are the same. Again, just not as impressive. Wasn't on the first spray, wasn't on the sixth wearing. 8/10, still a beautiful DNA, very modern

Man I love this scent . Its better smelling than platine blanc . The mint smells more green instead of artifical. I have to say that Voux Zingy is not a beast mode fragrance. So you have to respray at lunch . This is to me eating strawberries in spring watching a tennis game and wearing a white t shirt . Highly recommended and a perfect fragrance for layering!

Such an amazing herbal scent but for me the performance is just not there and same for the sillage. If it performed better and the sillage was better though it would be my go to scent.

Smells almost identical to Torino 21 small differences but pretty much the same thing to most noses. Smells like a fresh mojito in the middle of the summer, beautiful.

Its citrus and sweet, perfect for the warmer days. Not monster projection but decent. Love this scent DNA, not the usual summer freshies. Love it

Mojito in a bottle. Fresh, herbal, citrusy...easy reach for humid summer days. Completely unisex..does not lean feminine or masculine.

Photorealistic Mojito! I was so scared to get it because I don’t usually like mint in fragrances, but this one is blended perfectly

Feels tailor-made for brutal summer heat. Crisp, herbal, and cooling.

Amazing stuff, incredibly close to Torino 21. Would recommend.

Smells beautiful but lasts less than than 30 minutes.

Comparing Voux Zingy vs Platine Blanc - wearing both right now. <1min: there's a negligible difference - Platine Blanc has a bit more mojito zingy vibe while Voux Zingy is more herbal fresh. Still very much the same scent overall. By 1st minute it platine blanc looses some of that difference and both become much harder to distinguish. Quite easy if you stuck nose in having both at the same time, but trust me, this difference is neglibile. You'll be fine with both. What's the actual difference worth mentioning is not in smell, but performance: 30 minutes in i could barely smell VZ sticking my nose into skin while platine blanc still clearly is there. Important notes: -My skin soaks every fragrance like a sponge compared to most people - i did go outside for a 20 minute ride at minus 2 degrees celsius (but the input from 30min after applying was in a warm room again) - i have just opened the Voux Zingy bottle. It had no time to even slightly improve. I paid for Voux Zingy 45PLN / ~10euro. At that price i don't regret even abysmal blind bought fragrances, and here i got absolutely beautiful scent, so even the performance doesn't make me regret. I have bought however around 150 clones and i dont mind paying another 10 euro, but if you are looking to create a small colection of few, max 'teen fragrances i would absolutely recommend to pay more for platine blanc for the performance(around 45 euro atm).

Definitely smells just like my decant of Torino 21. It doesn't have that strong punchy opening of T21, but it smells nearly identical to the T21 dry down. Obviously this is much lighter smelling and not as long lasting , but you can over spray for this price. I am not crazy about the scent profile of Torino 21, but I heard it layers well with both 40 Knots and Naxos, both of which I love. I will leave a full review after I have more time with it. Holding judgement for now.

Either I'm warming up to the T21 DNA, or letting this one mature made a big difference. I'm really enjoying this one today. I wish they had left the jasmine note out, it gives it a bit of weirdness in the back that I think it's the bathroom cleaner people are detecting; luckily, It's only extremely noticeable if you get incredibly close to it.

I've never smelled Torino21; however, purchased this because all the reviews say this has the same DNA, AND at a much better price point. A simple fresh, green and clean summer scent. Not the best projector or greatest longevity; but a decent performer for the price.

This took months to mature. Upon first getting it, it was extremely weak. Sprayed and then stored. Nearly 10 months later, much better performance, from 1 to 5 hours. And projects a tad more. For the price value, decent. Herbal, citrus, musk.

Amazing scent especially if youre looking for a torino 21 clone for a fraction of the price and performance is average for a summer scent. 8 /10 would be a 9 or 10 for me if the performance was better

The fragrance is perfect. Clean, fresh, citrus, green. A one of a kind among the middle eastern fragrances. Sadly, it turns into a skin scent in less than an hour.

Are there different strengths of these on the market? Mine lasts for several hours on my skin, even commendably for being a citrus scent....

Dumb reach fragrance but this will also make you stand out from the rest. Still testing longevity

I don’t mean to offend anybody, but although I like fresh citrus fragrances with hints of aromatic herbs, this smells a little plain to me, almost like toothpaste and doesn’t last at all. 10 minutes in and the scent is gone. Also, with my skin chemistry this shows some weird dirty undertones unfortunately :(( I bought a 2 ml sample (which I recommend doing with any middle eastern fragrance) and maybe it needs to macerate, but as of right now (after wearing it a couple of times), this is among my least favourite scents and I expected more from this, as it’s a very loved fragrance in the community. Overall: skip/10

Opens with a very sharp, zingy lemon that’s quite grassy and honestly a bit cleaning-product-like. After a while, basil and mint show up and give it a fresh, mojito-style vibe. The lemon never really calms down though and becomes a little irritating for me. Nothing groundbreaking or unique here. Definitely more of a spring/summer scent. Overall it’s fine, but not something I’d personally repurchase. TL;DR: 🍋 strong lemon cleaner moment 🌿 mint + basil mojito vibes 🌞 spring/summer only 😐 fresh but not groundbreaking Voux Zingy = if you want to smell like a lemon mojito that also cleans surfaces 😭🍋🧼 5/10

I’ve just purchased this in the early spring of 2025 and it was a blind buy. On my initial wearing my impression is that this is more of a twist than a dupe of XERJOFF-Torino 21 What I liked in Torino 21 was the top of mint which in Zingy has been replaced by basil. The basil rapidly fades becoming more of a green note than an identifiable herb. I really miss the refreshing mint of Torino 21 but I’m looking forward to testing this in the heat.

Well it's definately close to T21, but it's just not the spot on. Maybe this lemony dna is not my thing and i do prefer something different This frag lasts approximately 30 minutes, no projection at all. I'm not sure that it's that 'flat', in my opinion it's not and you can definately diverse basil, lemon, citron etc. But i never tried to compare T21 and Zingy face-to-face kinda on boith hands. Averall don't buy it, don't think it's worth it

Initially it is very very toothpaste or mouth wash like. It has dried down now and honestly it just smells like toothpaste even for this cheap price I just can’t imagine who would want to smell like this but to each their own. This brands take on Naxos the name is escaping me right now elegante maybe but I have a back up bottle of that one as it’s truly a beautifully done twist of Naxos but this one is for sure a miss for me.

What is up with Paris Corner scents lately? I love zingy!! I’m a lemon girl in summer and verbena? Yess plssssss ! But then gone 🤷♀️ ...marshmallow blush etc perform like body mists? And it’s sad as I do quite love the notes and smell! Marshmallow Blush for example, with maceration is heavenly smelling, BUT sad sad performs like a body mist. My third PC that doesn’t last

Very good but very weak. After about an hour you cant really smell it.

Fresh, minty toothpaste is what I am getting from my first wear. That's all from minute one to about eight hours later. A disappointing blind buy unfortunately. I'm usually the one raving about clones or inspired-by fragrances, but I sadly can't with Voux Zingy.

It's so bad for me, smells like citrus toilet cleaner or anything citrus/ lemon scented for cleaning. Smells cheap, not this citrusy-tea like. Though you can also smell a little of the basil, so it's lemon toilet cleaner with sprinkled basil.

It starts of tart and tangy. 15-30 minutes later you can't smell it. Body mist longevity. I won't repurchase. I'll let it mature and see if longevity improves.

Bought it as the “best” dupe for Torino, when it came and I tried it for the first time, Iv smelt minty, citrusy and acidic toilet cleaner from Temu. But I didn’t judge it straight from first day, I let it mancturbate for around 2 months and then tried again. And boom , still super toxic toilet cleaner with more feminine vibe but little less toxic when it was in the beggining. Still as of now I would rather be smelly with odor and sweat than wearing this as a fragrance. Btw I’m not even gonna use this on toilet cuz of this smell .

Not even close to the real thing. I’m never trusting fragrantica reviews on dupes again. Torino 21 smells bright and sparkly and honestly beautiful top 3 fragrance of all time and this dupe smells completely flat and like doodoo compared to it. Seriously smells nothing like it and after realizing I wasted money on the dupe and just went ahead and bought the real thing and am much happier.

My farts lasts longer and I'm not even joking . This should not be allowed to be sold . You spray it on and before you have your coat on to leave the house it's gone . I can't judge the the smell because there is nothing to be smelled .

I honestly don’t understand the hype in this fragrance ....smells like granny , low projection , low fixation , very feminine , I mean I have a 80 bottles collection , this is definitely between the worst 10

Not that similar to Torino21. Much more soapy and loses a lot of the charm for my taste. Get Platine Blanc instead

I just got this in today! First of all, whoever compared this to t**thp*ste, count your days because that's all I could smell at first whiff. I wanted to give this a chance and really take the time to smell all of the notes. I am loving this! I can smell the citron, lemon, bergamot, and basil at the beginning. You can smell the actual basil note after a few minutes but I really get lemon/mint at first. As it dries down, I began to smell the verbena note as well as the musk. In my opinion, the jasmine is really subtle. The sharp citrus dissipates kind of quickly and that's great for me because I'm not really a big citrus fan in my fragrances. The lemon/citron/bergamot takes a backseat to the basil, verbena, musk after a while making it really balanced for my taste. I'm really enjoying the dry down! This is also a unisex fragrance. Anyone could wear this! As it lingers, it really reminds me of fancy hotel soap or a spa and its products in the best way! It's so fresh but also so calming and intriguing. This seems best for the summer and springtime. Overall, this is a great perfume. I've never smelled Torino 21, but I think it's great on its own. For me the musk and the verbena notes really make Voux Zingy special. I hope everyone that reads this will give it a shot especially if you like freshies and you're looking for something unique.

It's a great scent for the price -- smells much more expensive then it is. On first spray I thought it was really feminine leaning, like I've smelt this on a pretty woman before. The opening is a bit too herbal/basil for me but in 15 minutes it calms down into a very classy summer scent. If you're a man and you like unisex scents, this is definitely one to consider. If you're a woman, just get it. I would love to smell this on a sexy woman. Performance for me was good for a summer scent. I usually do 5 sprays on my forearm and was still getting wafts about 5 hours later, after that it lingers gently for a few more hours and becomes a skin scent around 7-8 hour mark. I love the scent but I've been layering it with a more masculine scent most of the time. Today I have Sauvage EDT with voux zingy. Loving it. Happy to have it in my collection.

The opening over time has gotten so much stronger, that green piercing accord is so different from anything fresh and citrusy Ive smelled before, its like a big jolt to the nose receptors. I cant help it but it reminds me form my childhood when I used to go pick some yellow plums off the tree that were still unripe, greenish and sour - this smells just like it. I really like how different this comes off, wish it was stronger, could really cut through the heat on those scorching days. Just got Hawas Verde, it does have that similar green accord like Zesty/T21 but Havas is a little sweeter and there is more to it in the background, still very nice as well. Probably my fav Hawas from the recent of many rapid releases from them.

Just received my bottle. I’ll start by saying the name is ridiculous and the presentation is silly, but different. The scent is really juicy out of the bottle. Bright and citrusy. The other reviews mentioned weak performance. I’m pretty sure it’s a nose blind situation. After a few hours, I can tell it’s there...but not loud. I asked my wife and she assured me it’s still going strong and it smells amazing. I’ve never smelled Torino21 so I can’t vouch. I do get a Versace Eros Energy vibe tho. I’ll give it a few more wears and come back with an edit...

IDK much about torino21, so I'll judge this fragrance as a standalone. It's ok, very verbena forward and I can detect some basil in the opening, then in the base I can smell some kind of ambroxany-feel. Doesn't last long tho and it's too simple for my liking. I'm just using it as a layering fragrance because of its freshness, but used it alone it is pretty mid, gonna try platine blanc maybe in the future, I'm not sure about it tho
