Which Should You Buy?
A lavish boozy-vanilla bomb laced with rum, cinnamon, and resins. Clandestine Clara is unapologetically decadent, smoldering and addictive, perfect for those who crave drama and opulence in a bottle.
A budget clone of Maison Crivelli's Oud Cadenza. The sweet, spicy gourmand-oud with its dates, caramel and smooth oud captures the original's cosy opulence, though Perfume Parlour renders it simpler and without the niche version's monster longevity.
