Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Cruel Intentions EDP
This one's a proper hot mess, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. While some find it an intoxicating rose-oud dream, others are stuck with a plasticky, oversweet mess. Definitely try before you buy, but if it works for you, it *really* works.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Good Plan EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of By Kilian - Cruel Intentions - a citrus fragrance led by Violet, Rose, Bergamot, with woody depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit

Cruel Intentions

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its bold projection and rich, woody character make it unsuitable for everyday office wear. However, its longevity and seductive nature are perfect for special occasions or romantic evenings where it can truly shine.

Good Plan

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Best in spring and summer - the citrus, woody profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
