Which Should You Buy?
A summer flanker that struggles to define its own identity. Expect a fleeting, sweet floral opening before it settles into a less-than-thrilling dry down that some find divisive. Originality isn't its strong suit.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Issey Miyake Summer - a citrus fragrance led by Litchi, Pink Grapefruit, with vanilla depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its generally weak performance and light, airy floral accords make it far more suitable for casual, daytime activities, including sport. The lack of intensity means it won't overpower in an office setting, but equally, it lacks the depth for formal events or romantic dates.
Seasons
Reach for it across spring and summer, where the citrus signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.
Occasions
This one suits casual and daily settings; the easy, breezy character keeps it versatile for date rotation too.
