Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Admirer II Eau de Parfum

A budget Perfume Parlour interpretation of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau Le Parfum (2022) - the EDP flanker by Quentin Bisch and Sonia Constant that built on the original Le Beau's coconut-tonka heart with pineapple, iris, ginger, and a richer amber-sandalwood base. Honest dupe-fidelity for autumn-winter and evening wear.

Our Verdict - Island Eau de Parfum

Khadlaj Island is a divisive yet celebrated dupe for JPG Le Beau Le Parfum; a genuine tropical escape for some, a sickly sweet disappointment for others. If you're patient with maceration, it's a good bet for summer vibes and compliments but expect some disagreement.

Season and Occasion Fit

Admirer II Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn Winter

The richer amber-tonka-sandalwood base and the coconut-lactonic heart shift this EDP flanker firmly into autumn and winter; warm-weather wear is possible but the depth reads heavy in summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Office Casual

Sweet-amber masculine with EDP-strength projection fits date and formal evening wear naturally, with dinner viable; office viable at low dosage but the sweetness can read informal. Too rich for sport.

Island Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Sport

This shines brightest in casual, warm-weather settings like beach days or relaxed outings due to its sweet, tropical accords. While some find it suitable for dates, its potential sweetness and moderate to strong projection can make it less ideal for formal events or enclosed office spaces.
