Perfume Parlour Bridal Wear For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Bridal Wear For Women opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Rose, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Oud, and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Bridal Wear For Women carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A budget take on Givenchy's Eaudemoiselle Bois de Oud. The Turkish-rose-meets-soft-oud heart wrapped in vanilla and amber captures the original's beginner-friendly, sweet-but-not-too-sweet oriental floral; this dupe gives up some of the rose's polish and crispness and wears closer to the skin.

About

Bridal Wear chases Givenchy's Eaudemoiselle Bois de Oud, the house's gentle, beginner-friendly take on oud. It opens with a bright mandarin twist before unfolding into the heart that carries it - a soft, classy Turkish rose laced with orange blossom, rosy but never overwhelming. Underneath, the oud is the friendly kind: smoothed and rounded rather than barnyard, leaning on warm vanilla, amber, a thread of olibanum incense and a touch of cedar to keep it sweet, ambery and elegant. Where the Givenchy already wears moderate (around six hours) with a soft, classy sillage, this dupe loses a little of the rose's crisp refinement and the incense lift, reading flatter and slightly more synthetic in the oud, and settling closer to the skin sooner. It is still a pretty, wearable rose-oud oriental - warm, feminine and dressy - that suits cooler months and special occasions, an accessible budget stand-in for the Givenchy.
