Which Should You Buy?
Nio is a divisive citrus-green powerhouse. For some, it's the ultimate refined summer freshie; for others, an overpriced cleaning product. Expect sharp, photorealistic green notes.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Xerjoff - Nio - a warm spicy fragrance led by Green Notes, Bergamot, Neroli, with floral depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its sharp, clean, and energetic profile makes it ideal for casual wear and sports, while reviewers also noted its suitability for office and more dressed-up summer occasions due to its refined quality and good longevity for a fresh scent.
Seasons
The warm spicy character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.
Occasions
Its warm spicy, floral signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
