Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York Oud EDP
New York Oud is a love-it-or-hate-it beast, notorious for its monstrous performance. Expect a potent, dark rose and plum with an oud backbone, but brace yourself for polarising 'urinal cake' comparisons from its detractors.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Rosé Nova EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Rose Star Dior - a warm spicy fragrance led by Sichuan Pepper, Pear, Lemon, with fruity depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.

Season and Occasion Fit

New York Oud

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Rosé Nova

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The warm spicy character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its warm spicy, fruity signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
