Which Should You Buy?
A budget take on Bond No.9's Central Park South. South Forest captures the loud, luminous grapefruit-blossom opening and the blooming jasmine-and-lily heart over soft woods that defines the niche original, but Perfume Parlour's version reads flatter and tamer, missing the beast-mode projection and ten-hour longevity that made the original famous.
This loud white floral powerhouse is surprisingly divisive. While some find it a gorgeous, clean, fresh delight, others are distinctly underwhelmed or even repulsed. Don't blind buy; this is one you need to test first.
