Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bohemian Lime EDP
Bohemian Lime is a divisive scent: some find it a sublime, photorealistic lime freshie, while others get generic aftershave or cleaning product. Give it a spray to see if it sings on your skin or turns sour.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Black Coal EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Noir Anthracite. Built around Bergamot, Ebony, Ginger, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Noir Anthracite.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bohemian Lime

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean, and often praised inoffensive nature makes it ideal for office and casual wear, especially in hot weather. While some find it leans masculine or barbershop-like, its moderate projection means it won't overwhelm in closer settings.

Black Coal

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the warm spicy, citrus profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the warm spicy accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
