Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Made to Measure EDP
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Reviews are all over the shop; some absolutely love its subtle charm, others reckon it's a weak, forgettable mess. Expect either a pleasant surprise or utter disappointment.
Statement
Our Verdict - Third Letter EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of C for Men by Clive C - a aromatic fragrance led by Thyme, Saffron, Mandarin Orange, with warm spicy depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.

Season and Occasion Fit

Made to Measure

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its generally weak projection and inoffensive nature make it perfect for the office or casual day wear where subtlety is key. Some find it suitable for dates due to its gentle aura, but its lack of strong sillage limits its impact in formal settings or during sport.

Third Letter

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The aromatic character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its aromatic, warm spicy signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
