Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Brooklyn Eau de Parfum
This citrus and amber fragrance gets a very mixed bag of reviews. Some love its unique, uplifting lemon candy and powdery warmth, while others find it annoyingly synthetic or boring. Definitely one to sample before you buy, it's not a crowd-pleaser for everyone.

Our Verdict - Salam Eau de Parfum
Salam feels like a perfume stuck in two minds - half fresh, half cosy - all while being a bit of a wallflower. People are split; some reckon it's an understated gem that gets them noticed, others feel a bit mugged off by the price for something that barely sticks around.

Season and Occasion Fit

Brooklyn Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its moderate projection and fresh, clean profile make it suitable for office wear and casual outings, though some find it light, needing extra sprays. The citrus and soft amber combination isn't quite right for formal events or a standout date night, but the underlying freshness could work for daytime sport.

Salam Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Given its weak projection and skin-scent nature, Salam is ideal for office and casual wear as it won't offend. It's less suited for formal events where more presence is typically desired, and its gentle character makes it less impactful for dates.
