Which Should You Buy?
A legendary noughties fragrance, Black XS is a sweet, dark, and playful scent that's loved by many for its unique 'strawberry milkshake' vibe. Ignore the whiners, this one's a classic - but be warned, performance issues with newer batches mean you should hunt down a vintage if you can.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Black XS - a citrus fragrance led by Lemon, Sage, with aromatic depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.
