Our Verdict

Ample by Perfume Parlour is a highly faithful, budget friendly take on Xerjoff's Richwood. The most significant difference lies in the overall depth and refinement, with Richwood showcasing a more luxurious and seamless blend. Ample captures the essence of Richwood's woody-citrus profile but lacks some of the original's complexity. If you want a close approximation of the Richwood experience without the high price tag, Ample is a solid choice. But Richwood delivers a richer, more nuanced experience.

Our Verdict - Ample EDP
A budget Perfume Parlour interpretation of Xerjoff Richwood (2010) by Jacques Flori - the citrus-rose-patchouli signature from Xerjoff's Shooting Stars collection that became one of the Italian house's most-loved unisex woody-balsamic compositions.

Season and Occasion Fit

Richwood

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Richwood's opulent sandalwood, patchouli and vanilla make it best suited for cooler temperatures, excelling in fall and winter when its richness and warmth blossom. The touch of citrus and rose allows some versatility in spring, but it is too heavy for most summer wear.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold projection and luxurious profile make Richwood ideal for formal events and special dates, while its richness might overwhelm in casual or office settings. Far too opulent for sporty occasions.

Ample

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Citrus-rose-patchouli-labdanum-sandalwood reads firmly autumn-winter; the polished niche-house warmth carries into a cool spring evening. Less natural in warm summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Sophisticated woody-balsamic with composed projection fits date, formal evening, and dinner wear naturally; office viable at low dosage. Too distinctive for sport.
