Perfume Parlour Beyond is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Beyond opens with Bergamot, Lavender, Pear, and Mint, settles into a heart of Cinnamon, Cumin, and Clary Sage, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Beyond carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Beyond chases Jean Paul Gaultier's Ultra Male and lands the headline pear-and-vanilla gourmand sweetness, but renders it flatter and softer. The cumin-cinnamon spice and ambered woods are dialled back, so it reads sweeter and closer to the skin than the room-filling original.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Beyond opens on the signature Ultra Male hook: candied pear bright with bergamot and a cool mint lift, the pear instantly recognisable. Black lavender threads through but stays quiet. The heart leans on cinnamon with a faint cumin warmth and a whisper of clary sage, giving a spicy-sweet middle that never gets as dense or animalic as the original's. The dry-down is all black vanilla over soft amber and a thin woody base - the gourmand core survives, but the projection and weight do not. Where Ultra Male fills a room for hours, Beyond stays a sweet, comforting scent that hugs the skin and fades faster. It captures the fun, party-ready spirit of the original at a fraction of the price, just in a lower-definition, more linear form. Best in autumn and winter, for evenings and dates where you want the pear-vanilla signature without the heavy sillage.
