Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lafayette Street EDP
Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street is a divisive one, hyped by many as a mass-appealing, versatile masterpiece, but dismissed by others as overpriced and utterly generic. It's safe, sure, but whether it smells 'luxurious' or like cheap wet wipes depends entirely on your nose and your budget.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Reade Enchantment Extrait - 2594 EDP
Reade Enchantment Extrait is Perfume Parlour's take on Bond No. 9 Lafayette Street, matching the bergamot-coriander-apple opening and the tonka-ambergris-woody base, with the heart traded for an orange blossom-jasmine sambac accord in place of the original's more abstract florals.
