Perfume Parlour Almaz Essence is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Almaz Essence opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Mandarin, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Orris, Heliotrope, and Raspberry, and dries down to a base of Brown Sugar, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Perfume Parlour's Almaz Essence carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A juicy, berry-sweet reading of Kajal Almaz - tart blackcurrant and raspberry melting into brown sugar, vanilla and musk. Perfume Parlour pushes the candied sweetness up while the original's polished citrus-floral lift and strong projection are dialled back.

About

Almaz Essence opens on a tart, sparkling burst of blackcurrant brightened by Calabrian bergamot, Amalfi lemon and mandarin - the same fruity hit that makes Kajal Almaz so moreish. The heart deepens with raspberry, soft heliotrope and a whisper of Turkish rose and orris, lending a floral roundness beneath the fruit. The drydown is warm and gourmand: brown sugar, Madagascar vanilla, tonka, musk, sandalwood and amber pull it into a sensual, slightly candied finish. Compared to the original, Perfume Parlour leans the sweet brown-sugar and berry facets louder while the crisp citrus opening and the Kajal's notable sillage flatten a little, so it feels more straightforwardly sweet and less refined. Projection is good early before settling, with respectable but shorter longevity. A flirtatious fruity-gourmand for cool-weather date nights and casual outings.
