Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Rebelle
Rebelle is one of those divisive beasts you either adore or absolutely loathe. When it works, it's a luscious, boozy gourmand. When it doesn't, it's a muddy, patchouli-laden mess. Definitely try before you buy this one.
Statement
Our Verdict - Complacent
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Rebelle. Built around Cacao, Coffee, Ginger, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Rebelle.

Season and Occasion Fit

Rebelle

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its strong projection and gourmand accords make it less suitable for the office, but its bold, sensual nature is perfect for date nights and evening events. For casual wear, a light hand is needed, especially in colder weather as many describe it as a 'winter' or 'Christmas' scent.

Complacent

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Best in autumn and winter - the coffee, warm spicy profile suits those conditions, while extremes of heat or cold flatten the dupe's lighter composition.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Keep it for evening and daily - the coffee accord gives presence while the gentle projection keeps it crowd-friendly.
