Which Should You Buy?
Prepare for a polarised opinion; Lost in Paris is a luxury gourmand that splits the room right down the middle. Some call it an overpriced diabetes bomb, others proclaim it an otherworldly, unique masterpiece. Sample first to see if you're in the 'love it' camp.
Perfume Parlour's run at Roja Dove's Lost In Paris. The caramelised-orange-and-rum-over-butter-caramel gourmand signature is recognisable, but Paris Drift trades the niche original's enormous 8-to-18-hour projection for a sweeter, flatter, more skin-close take.

Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Lost in Paris is a strong, sweet gourmand with substantial projection, making it unsuitable for office wear. Its luxurious and sensual character, powered by impressive longevity, makes it perfect for dates and formal events. The unique scent profile also allows for casual wear, albeit with careful application.
Seasons
The sweet caramelised-orange and gourmand-vanilla profile is built for cosy autumn and winter wear.
Occasions
A sweet, sensual evening and date scent, too rich for daytime office wear but lovely for cosy nights.
