Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Majestic Amber EDP
A powerhouse fragrance that's far from shy; Majestic Amber is a luxurious, dense blend perfect for making a grand entrance. It's a statement scent, guaranteed to turn heads and leave a lasting impression, not for the faint of heart.

Our Verdict - Majestic Amber EDP
Perfume Parlour's take on the opulent Majestic Amber Arabian oriental. It captures the saffron-spice opening and resinous frankincense-and-ambergris glow that defines the genre, but the budget render thins out the original's creamy, beast-mode depth into something warm but more wearable.
