Which Should You Buy?
This isn't your average flanker. Extravagance d'Amarige is a vibrant, green-floral powerhouse that stands alone. While some find its boldness a bit much, devotees praise its unique, sparkling charm and impressive staying power. A true 90s icon, tragically discontinued.
A vivid green-floral nod to Givenchy Extravagance d'Amarige - marigold and green mandarin over a strawberry-and-orange-blossom heart on woods. Perfume Parlour rounds off the original's sparkly, slightly harsh green opening, landing softer and fruitier but less distinctive.

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

Its fresh, green, and uplifting character makes it versatile for casual and daytime wear, with a noticeable presence that could be a bit strong for very formal or intensely sporty settings. The enduring sillage mentioned in reviews suggests it's not a 'skin scent', making it suitable for occasions where you want to be noticed without being overwhelming.
Seasons
The green, fruity-floral character feels brightest in spring and summer.
