Which Should You Buy?
This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, consistently compared to Mugler's Angel, yet often preferred for its supposedly more refined, less sweet character. Expect a hefty patchouli presence; if that's not your bag, best steer clear. It's a bold scent that certainly makes an entrance.
Manhattan Night follows Bond No.9's Nuits de Noho, that floral-woody-musk often called a lighter, greener cousin of Mugler's Angel. Perfume Parlour keeps the signature pineapple-leaf-and-patchouli skeleton but sweetens the vanilla and softens the woods, so it skews a touch more gourmand than the cleaner, greener original.
