Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Straight to Heaven Extreme EDP
This one's a divisive beast, a boozy, woody ride that some call a masterpiece and others just won't get on with. Expect a deep, seductive aroma that projects confidence and refinement. It won't be for everyone, but if it clicks for you, prepare for an intoxicating experience.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Paradise Wood EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of By Kilian Straight To Heaven Oud And Musk Special Blend 2021 - a woody fragrance led by Nutmeg, with warm spicy depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit

Straight to Heaven Extreme

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With strong projection and long-lasting performance, this scent is too bold for a typical office environment. Reviews repeatedly highlight its masculinity and sexiness, making it ideal for dates and special formal events, especially in cooler weather.

Paradise Wood

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The woody character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its woody, warm spicy signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
