Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Détour Noir Eau de Parfum

This "clone" is highly divisive. Some see a cheap ticket to luxury, others a synthetic nightmare. You'll either get an amazing dupe, or a headache-inducing mess. Don't expect the quality of the original, but for the price, it might just surprise you.

Acquired

Our Verdict - Manila Eau de Parfum

A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Parfums de Marly Layton (2016) - apple, violet and vanilla translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its moderate projection and warm, inviting accords make it suitable for dates and casual outings, though the initial synthetic blast noted by some may deter from formal occasions. While many find it versatile for day-to-day, a powerful vanilla-heavy scent might be too much for smaller office environments.
