* Is actually better than Tom Ford Fucking Fabulous
* Complex sweet, leather, vanilla, smoke, chocolate, wood and amber aroma blend
* Excellent performer, even better than the fragrance it clones
* High value for the price
* Very affordable
* Unisex
* Polarizing leather aroma will be a hit or miss for some
* Gourmand opening hides the leather drydown which may throw some users off
* Lackluster presentation and packaging compared to other Just Jack products
Just Jack Fanta Fab is a clone of Tom Ford Fucking Fabulous and is one of the few times I'd recommend the clone over the original. The aroma is far more complex and it's a far stronger performer. How often can you say that about a clone compared to the original?
Fanta Fab has a complex aroma that opens gourmand with strong smoke, vanilla, chocolate, amber, and spice aromas before drying down into a strong leather, wood, vanilla and amber drydown. It's a powerhouse performer with very strong projection, longevity and sillage. The very affordable price adds the icing to the cake.
The leather note can be polarizing, especially since it's hidden beneath the strong gourmand opening. This may throw off users who only detect the leather on the drydown. This said, if you've sampled Fucking Fabulous and that's the reason you're getting this, then you know what you're in for.
My only real quibble is that the presentation is surprisingly lackluster, with a less than attractive box and bottle design. It seems like very little effort compared to their other presentations such as T. Rose, another very high quality fragrance of theirs which I also own.
This is very much a social occasion fragrance. It can be used in more formal settings but application should be toned down in such cases. Despite the strong leather note, this is actually quite usable by women as well as men thanks to the sweet gourmand notes. It's a bad boy's cologne and a bad girl's perfume.
