Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Étoile Filante EDP
With its delicate floral and fruity notes, Étoile Filante presents an understated yet luxurious femininity, perfect for a romantic spring day.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Stringy Star EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Louis Vuitton Etoile Filante - a floral fragrance led by Strawberry, with fruity depth. As a budget interpretation it sits lighter and more linear than the designer, but the core signature is there.

Season and Occasion Fit

Étoile Filante

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Autumn

The fruity floral notes of peony, osmanthus, and jasmine suit the transitional and warmer months of spring and summer, offering a light and fresh scent profile that's less fitting for cold weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

The soft projection and moderate longevity make it appropriate for daytime wear and intimate settings such as dates, while its luxurious nature suits casual and office settings.

Stringy Star

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Reach for it across spring and summer, where the floral signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

This one suits casual and daily settings; the easy, breezy character keeps it versatile for date rotation too.
