Which Should You Buy?
This is a sunny, beachy citrus with a sophisticated, powdery floral backbone. Love or hate the 'sunscreen vibe', it's a divisive but undeniably unique summer scent that captures the essence of a Californian sunset.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Louis Vuitton City Of Stars - a citrus fragrance led by Bergamot, Lemon, Blood Mandarin, with woody depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its fresh, energetic citrus and floral accords make it perfect for casual wear and dates, offering a relaxed yet appealing aura. While some found it long-lasting and great for work, the prominent 'sunscreen vibe' might be too informal for certain office or formal settings.
Seasons
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
Keep it for casual and daily - the citrus accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
