Which Should You Buy?
A divisive aquatic for sure - it's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Many adore its fresh rain-soaked vibe, while others find the angelica-vetiver drydown a bit too heavy or even 'unpleasant'. Clearly a crowd-pleaser for some, yet perplexing for others.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Jo Malone - Rain & Angelica - a citrus fragrance led by Lime, with woody depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.
