Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Ralph Wild EDP
This one's a proper Y2K time capsule; a sweet, juicy hit that had a seriously devoted following. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans lamenting its discontinuation while detractors found it too synthetic. Either way, it left an impression.

Our Verdict - Mallet On Fire For Women EDP
A budget take on Ralph Lauren's discontinued Ralph Wild. Mallet On Fire captures the juicy strawberry-and-watermelon burst over a soft floral-musk that defines the original, but Perfume Parlour's version reads more balanced and rounded where Ralph Wild was greener, and the staying power stays modest, much like the fleeting original.
