Which Should You Buy?
This is MFK's most divisive creation, a love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a masterpiece of alluring, dirty honey, while others recoil from its intense animalic character. Not for the faint of heart, it's either pure magic or a scrubber.
A spicy, honeyed take on MFK Absolue Pour le Soir - cumin and white honey wrapped in incense, rose and sandalwood. Perfume Parlour keeps the animalic-amber idea but tames the original's notoriously wild, sweaty opening and trims its outstanding projection.
