Which Should You Buy?
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of By Kilian - Playing With The Devil - a fruity fragrance led by Black currant, White Peach, Litchi, with woody depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.
Manhattan by Bond No. 9 captures the urban sophistication with its spicy-woody blend that feels both modern and timeless.
