Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Where My Heart Beats EDP
A watercolored peony and violet leaf composition that feels like a sunlit spring morning - clean, enveloping, and quietly uplifting. For those who want serenity and elegance without ever shouting.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Pulse EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Where My Heart Beats - Gucci - a powdery fragrance led by Violet Leaves, with floral depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit

Where My Heart Beats

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The light, airy floral and fresh musky composition shines in spring and summer, matching mild-to-warm days. Its subtle projection and clean freshness are less suited to the cold of winter or the richer moods of autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its gentle freshness and musky floral character make it ideal for office, casual, and daytime occasions where a non-intrusive, airy scent is appreciated. It is less suited to formal or sporty contexts due to its softness and quiet projection.

Pulse

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The powdery 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 powdery, floral signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
