Which Should You Buy?
Divisive AF. Some reckon it's a sublime 'your skin but better' scent with understated luxury; others find it a rubbery mess, like cleaning products or bad car fresheners. Definitely not a safe blind buy, especially given the price tag.
Line Essence 618 is Perfume Parlour's dupe of Amouage's Line 618, a rich woody-leather-oriental built on frankincense, stone fruit and coconut milk over patchouli, sandalwood and guaiac wood. It reproduces the shape of Amouage's golden-ratio composition well for a budget entry, though inevitably without the pure-parfum depth and ageing process of the £300+ original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its intimate projection and non-shouting nature make it suitable for office wear, despite the presence of coconut. Reviewers highlight its 'second skin' feel, lending itself well to dates and casual settings where you want to be noticed subtly. The unique fruity-woody-leather composition is versatile enough for formal events if applied lightly.
