Which Should You Buy?
Reveal is a divisive, salty-sweet skin scent that perfectly captures sun-warmed skin after a sea dip. Sadly discontinued, it's a unique Calvin Klein gem for those who crave something a bit different, far from your typical summer fruity floral.
Perfume Parlour's budget take on the discontinued Calvin Klein Reveal - a peppery, salt-tinged 'solar oriental' over ambergris, iris and a warm, skin-soft cashmeran-sandalwood-musk base. PP captures the sheer, sensual, salt-and-pepper signature of the original; as a budget dupe it reads a touch flatter, with the salty radiance softened. A skin-close, sophisticated musk for a fraction of the price.
