Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper British conundrum. Some find it a fresh, grown-up vanilla with a unique spicy kick, like a refined confection. Others say it's more medicinal fennel than delicious, with a surprisingly weak performance typical of Jo Malone. A divisive scent.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Loverdose - a floral fragrance led by Star Anise, Mandarin Orange, with citrus depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its soft spicy and powdery accords, combined with general community consensus of light sillage and moderate longevity, make it ideal for casual wear and the office. It's a bit too subdued for formal events and not invigorating enough for sport, but could work for an intimate date.
Seasons
Best in spring and summer - the floral, citrus profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.
Occasions
Keep it for casual and daily - the floral accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
