Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Strong Me EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a rich, boozy vanilla that’s either deliciously addictive or overwhelmingly cloying. The metallic edge adds a divisive twist; some find it intriguing, others just odd.
Acquired
Our Verdict - I Am Powerful EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Paco Rabanne - Strong Me - a fruity fragrance led by Plum, with vanilla depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit

Strong Me

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its potent, sweet, and boozy character, even with moderate projection, makes it a bit much for the office but perfect for close encounters. It's versatile enough for casual wear in cooler weather, but might be too playful for very formal settings.

I Am Powerful

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

The fruity character is happiest in spring and summer - the freshness reads bright and clean in milder weather; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Its fruity, vanilla signature leans toward casual and daily wear - approachable enough for date use without overwhelming a room.
