Violet Wood EDP

Which Should You Buy?
A warm, spicy explosion that's a crowd-pleaser for a reason. While its many flankers might vex some, the original Spicebomb is a reliably potent, compliment-getting winter warmer that'll stand strong in any smoky bar.
Perfume Parlour's Violet Wood chases Dior Purple Oud - the sparkling orange-and-pink-pepper opening over saffron and clean oud is recognisable, but this dupe loses the polished, shimmering wood and the elegant restraint that make the Privee original so wearable.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and warm, spicy accords make it less suitable for the office. However, it's a stellar choice for dates and evening casual wear, as its seductive nature is often noted by wearers for bars and intimate settings. It leans too casual for formal events and is entirely unsuitable for sport.
Seasons
The clean oud, saffron and warm woods suit autumn and winter, with the bright citrus-pepper opening keeping it wearable in spring.
Occasions
Elegant and refined - well suited to evenings, dates and dressier formal occasions, and clean enough for the office; too rich for sport.
