Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Happy Heart Parfum
A breath of fresh air, Happy Heart Parfum is a watery floral with a crisp, cucumber-citrus opening and a gentle, serene drydown. Unobtrusive and breezy, it's endlessly wearable.

Our Verdict - NYC II EDP
Perfume Parlour's take on Calvin Klein CK2. NYC II captures the wet-stone mineral freshness and green wasabi lift that made the original a cult clean-skin scent; buyers rate the petrichor note realistic, though longevity stays short like the original.

Season and Occasion Fit

Happy Heart

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Its watery florals, cucumber, and citrus make it supremely refreshing and radiant in spring and summer, while the lack of warmth and moderate projection limit its winter suitability.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Sport

Low sillage and lightness make it an ideal office and casual fragrance, while its clean, aquatic character is also pleasant for sporty scenarios but too subtle for formal evening wear.

NYC II

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The cool mineral, wet-stone and green freshness is built for warm, bright spring and summer days.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Clean and unobtrusive - ideal for casual daytime, the office and daily wear rather than formal evenings.
