Which Should You Buy?
A throwback to the 90s, Tommy Girl is a divisive scent - some find it a timeless, fresh classic, others a dated, sharp reminder of school discos. Love it or hate it, you can't deny its place in perfume history. Still, it delivers a fresh, zesty punch that's hard to ignore.
Survival is Perfume Parlour's take on a crisp designer fruity-floral, opening on tart grapefruit and quince before a clean jasmine-hyacinth heart settles onto soft iris, cedar and musk. Like most budget dupes it renders flatter and skin-closer than a boutique original, but it's a pretty, easy-wearing fresh floral.
