Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Born To Be Unforgettable EDP
This one is as divisive as it gets. You'll either get an incredibly realistic, sparkling cola-lime that evolves into a spicy, woody base, or a repulsive, synthetic mess that dries down to an unwearable 'blue' scent. Not for a blind buy.
Statement
Our Verdict - Light Emission EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Xerjoff - Starlight - a warm spicy fragrance led by Cardamom, Bergamot, with citrus depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.
