Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Reine de Nuit 2019 EDT
This is a serious, opulent rose that polarises. For those who love its dark, jammy depth, it's a vampy, sexy dream. For others, it's a bit too much- like a rich aunty's lipstick mixed with a smokey ham sandwich. Regardless, it's a high-class, unique statement scent.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Midnight Monarch EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Reine de Nuit by Byredo - a fruity fragrance led by Blackcurrant, Saffron, with warm spicy depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit

Reine de Nuit 2019

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its strong sillage and dark, rich profile make it overpowering for the office and unsuitable for casual or sport wear. This is a showstopper, best reserved for date nights or formal events where its luxurious, bold character can truly shine without overwhelming the space.

Midnight Monarch

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Best in spring and summer - the fruity, warm spicy profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Keep it for casual and daily - the fruity accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
