Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Erotic Me EDP
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Rabanne's 'Erotic Me' isn't what you'd expect, swapping sexy for synthetic and creating a truly divisive scent. It’s a lactonic-fruity-leather mashup that some will adore as uniquely modern, while others will find it bizarre and unwearable. Don't expect conventional charm; this is for the adventurous.
Statement
Our Verdict - I Am Hot EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Paco Rabanne - Erotic Me - a leather fragrance led by Leather, Milk, with sweet depth. The dupe trades some of the original's depth and longevity for a wallet-friendly price, keeping the recognisable character.

Season and Occasion Fit

Erotic Me

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn Winter

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its soft sillage and skin-scent nature make it moderately suitable for office wear, but the unusual lactonic-fruity-leather combination might be too unconventional for some professional settings. It shines in casual and date scenarios where its playful, unique character can be appreciated. It's definitely not a formal or sport scent.

I Am Hot

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the leather, sweet profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the leather accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
