Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Il Padrino EDP
This one's a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent that's often compared to some big hitters. Many find it a rich, boozy-fruity masterpiece with beast-mode performance, while others find the drydown cheap, synthetic or just too much. Definitely sample first, as this isn't for the faint of heart.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Padrino Noir EDP
Perfume Parlour's budget read of Sospiro Il Padrino, the boozy amber-vanilla in the Khamrah lineage. It nails the rum-and-amaretto opening over a warm amber-vanilla-resin base, though it reads a shade sweeter and simpler and wears lighter than the long-lasting niche original.
