Why are Persian soldiers always depicted in Scythian-styled clothing? Shoudn't they look like guys from Persepolis relief?

Absolutely. The immortals even have fancy gold pomegranates instead of butt spikes for their spears in the relief. Given that the context of the reliefs is of subjects bringing of tribute to the Shah, this is probably what troops wore at court. It's basically a dress uniform.
