Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Silky Woods EDP
Silky Woods is a smooth, sophisticated vanilla that’s got the whole room talking - some rave about its luxurious depth, while a vocal minority find its leathery elements a bit too much. Definitely a try-before-you-buy situation, but a crowd-pleaser for many.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Mena Al Haramain EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Al Haramain - Mena - a woody fragrance led by bright opening notes, with warm spicy depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.
