Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Au Masculin EDP
This early noughties gem is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect potent licorice and anise, backed by sweet vanilla and boozy warmth. If you appreciate a unique, sweet-spicy signature, you're in for a treat, but it's definitely not for everyone.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Bourdeaux Design EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin. Built around Anise, Basil, Ivy, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin.

Season and Occasion Fit

Au Masculin

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, sweet, and unique profile makes it a standout choice for dates and cooler casual outings, where its sillage can truly shine. The sweetness and potential for strong projection limit its appropriateness for office or formal settings, and it's definitely not one for sport.

Bourdeaux Design

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, aromatic signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
