Biscotti Melon Misk EDP

Which Should You Buy?
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of By Kilian - I Don't Need A Prince By My Side To Be A Princess - a fruity fragrance led by Lemon, with citrus depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.
Biscotti Melon Misk is a divisive fragrance - it's either a refreshing summer treat or a nauseating mess of melon and sweetness. You’ll either be entranced by its unique profile or completely put off.
