Which Should You Buy?
A boozy, berry-forward scent that swings between 'absolute masterpiece' and 'generic designer dupe'. You'll either adore its warm, sensual embrace or dismiss it for smelling like every other sweet, spicy scent out there. Blind buy at your peril.
Perfume Parlour's budget version of BORNTOSTANDOUT Drunk Lovers, the boozy cognac-and-berries woody-spicy. It captures the sexy liqueur-and-fruit opening and the warm spiced amber-vanilla base well, though it leans sweeter sooner and renders the complex spicy heart simpler than the niche original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its strong boozy and warm spicy accords, coupled with community remarks about it being 'sexy' and for 'date night', make it unsuitable for office or sport. The luxurious yet comforting feel, however, lends itself well to formal events and intimate dates.
Seasons
The boozy, spiced amber warmth feels richest in autumn and winter and cloying in summer heat.
Occasions
A sensual, boozy spicy-woody best for cold-weather evenings, dates and dressed-up occasions.
