Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Bamboo Harmony EDP
Bamboo Harmony is a divisive one. Many find this green tea and citrus blend to be a 'zen' spa experience, while a good few others dismiss it as an overpriced, generic freshie with woeful performance. Your mileage (and wallet) may vary.

Our Verdict - Tropical Tree EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Bamboo Harmony - a citrus fragrance led by Bitter Orange, Bergamot, Neroli, with floral depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit

Bamboo Harmony

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Formal

Its clean, fresh, and often-described 'inoffensive' nature, coupled with many noting its light projection, makes it an excellent choice for office wear or casual daytime use. While some suggest it for active moments, its relaxed and elegant DNA also lends itself to more refined, albeit not overtly formal, settings like certain date scenarios.

Tropical Tree

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The citrus character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its citrus, floral signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
