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.
Statement
Our Verdict - Velvet Woods EDP
Perfume Parlour's run at Goldfield & Banks Silky Woods. Velvet Woods captures the creamy vanilla-and-tobacco warmth with saffron-cinnamon spice, though the refined oud-suede depth and marathon longevity of the niche original soften here.
