Which Should You Buy?
This one is a coconut rollercoaster - some adore its creamy, spicy charm, others are just plain disgusted. It's divisive, synthetic to many, but if you love a loud, sweet coconut, it might just be your summer signature. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
Purple Roma Melancholia For Men is Perfume Parlour's take on Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Purple Melancholia, matching the spicy cardamom opening, creamy coconut-lavender heart and amberwood base note for note.
