Which Should You Buy?
Roja Dove's Chypré Extraordinaire is an utterly gorgeous, complex chypre that divides opinion. Some laud it as a masterpiece, while others are left cold by its hefty price tag and perceived lack of originality or performance for the cost. Worth a shot if you're not paying the full whack.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Chypre Extraordinaire - a fruity fragrance led by Aldehydes, Bergamot, with citrus depth. Expect a softer, closer-to-skin take on the original - the signature intact, the projection gentler.
