Combination

Name: Combination Eau de Parfum
Brand: Perfume Parlour

Perfume Parlour Combination is an Eau de Parfum. Combination opens with Rose, Lily Of The Valley, Peony, and Lily, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lilac, Pear, and Blackberry, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Tonka Bean. Perfume Parlour's Combination carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Combination copies Calvin Klein's Contradiction - the same luminous white florals cut with that unusual cool eucalyptus over a soft musk-sandalwood base. The budget version captures the contrast but renders it flatter, with the green edge and woods sitting closer to the skin.

About

Combination opens with a bright bouquet of lily of the valley, rose, orchid, lily and peony - the luminous floral signature that defines Calvin Klein's Contradiction. The heart introduces the original's clever twist: cool, green eucalyptus playing against sweet lilac, jasmine and juicy blackberry, before a warm base of musk, tonka and sandalwood grounds it. Against the original the budget take softens the contrast - the eucalyptus is less metallic and the florals slightly more generic - and sillage stays close to the skin, much like the quiet original. It remains an elegant, modern floral-woody musk for spring and autumn, comfortable at the office, on dates and for everyday wear.
