Which Should You Buy?
Amber Pour Homme exudes an understated warm elegance with refreshing citrus and rich amber notes, ideal for the confident modern man.
Perfume Parlour's budget take on Prada Amber Pour Homme - a clean bergamot-cologne opening over an amber-fougere heart and a soft, soapy suede-saffron-sandalwood base. PP captures the just-showered, high-end-barbershop elegance the original is famous for, though it reads a touch flatter and less refined. A versatile, classy amber for a fraction of the Prada price.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The warm spicy and amber accords suit the milder and cooler weather of spring and fall best. The scent is less suited for the heat of summer and can provide warmth during winter.
Occasions
Its moderate projection and mature character make it suitable for office and date settings, while its less overwhelming intensity suits casual wear. Its sophistication doesn't fit well with sports or formal occasions.
Seasons
The warm amber-suede base makes it most at home in autumn and winter, while the clean cologne opening keeps it wearable in spring.
Occasions
Its clean, refined, soapy-elegant character is highly office- and formal-appropriate, with enough warmth for dates and daily wear.
