Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper enigma. Divisive as hell, with some calling it groundbreaking and complex, others labelling it boring and overpriced. If you're after a straightforward tea scent, look elsewhere, but if you enjoy a challenging, evolving green aroma, it might just surprise you.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Jade Leaf Tea (JM) - a citrus fragrance led by Grapefruit, with smoky depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Its fresh spicy, aromatic and woody composition leans towards spring.
Occasions
Its soft projection and fresh, aromatic character make it an excellent choice for office or casual wear where subtlety is key. It's less suited for formal events or romantic dates, as it lacks the bold presence typically desired for those occasions.
Seasons
Best in spring and summer - the citrus, smoky profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.
Occasions
Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
