Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - James Bond 007 EDP
This perfume is a proper little bargain, punching well above its weight. It's a sweet, spicy blackberry-vanilla combo that's got a dedicated following for good reason, though some pick up an odd 'pencil shavings' or 'vinyl' note. Grab it if you see it, as it's often discontinued.

Our Verdict - Codename For Men EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of 007 James Bond - a woody fragrance led by Apple, with fruity depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit

James Bond 007

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and sweet berry-vanilla profile make it fantastic for casual wear and dates. While light enough for office wear for many, its sweetness might be too much for very formal or sporty settings.

Codename For Men

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Reach for it across autumn and winter, where the woody signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

This one suits evening and daily settings; the easy, cosy character keeps it versatile for formal rotation too.
