Which Should You Buy?
Xerjoff Opera is a polarising beast, a 'love it or hate it' scent that commands attention. Expect nuclear projection and a divisive, confident aura. If you want something unique that isn't afraid to be extra, this is it.
A refined take on Xerjoff Opera's woody floral musk - fruity Turkish rose over ylang, leather and amber on a powdery cedar-vetiver base. Perfume Parlour captures the mature, lipstick-powdery elegance but lands a little flatter, with the original's 10-hour-plus performance trimmed.
