Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sweet Morphine EDP
Sweet Morphine is a polarising floral that either wraps you in a powdery, luxurious embrace or throws you headfirst into a vintage, soapy nightmare. Love it or hate it, it demands attention.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Velvet Blossom Elixir EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of My Sweetest Morphin by Ex Nihilo - a floral fragrance led by Lilac, Ozonic notes, Bergamot, with fresh depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.

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