Which Should You Buy?
Perfume Parlour's Victory chases the legendary Joop! Homme - the tutti-frutti sweet citrus opening and dense vanilla-tonka base are recognisable, but this dupe thins out the cloying powerhouse strength and beast-mode longevity that made the 1989 original infamous.
This Britney Spears flanker is a divisive one. Many find it light, sweet, and unique among its siblings, recalling festive orange cakes or holiday spices. However, others are turned off by its sharp, artificial citrus or overly woody, dated dry down.
