Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Safran Secret Extrait
Safran Secret is a beast mode, polarising saffron monster. You'll either love this metallic, spicy, woody powerhouse or find it an unwearable, synthetic nightmare. It's not for the faint-hearted and definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Saffron Secret EDP
Perfume Parlour's budget read of Maison Crivelli Safran Secret, the minimalist saffron-and-blonde-woods showpiece. It captures the bold, smooth saffron over warm woods well, though it reads a touch flatter and loses the refined 'burnt-match' nuance and the extrait original's enormous longevity.
