Cry and Heart

Name: Cry and Heart Eau de Parfum
Brand: Perfume Parlour

Perfume Parlour Cry and Heart is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010. Cry and Heart opens with Bergamot, Petitgrain, Lavender, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Oakmoss, and Styrax. Perfume Parlour's Cry and Heart carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Cry and Heart reaches for By Kilian's Love and Tears, that sparkling green shower of white jasmine. Perfume Parlour gets the lush floral heart right but renders the green opening flatter and the jasmine a little more soapy, trading some of the original's effervescent lift for a sweeter, simpler bouquet.

About

Cry and Heart opens green and bright, with galbanum, petitgrain and a whisper of lavender setting the same dewy, just-cut-foliage stage that made By Kilian's Love and Tears feel like springtime. The dupe keeps that freshness but loses a little of the original's effervescent sparkle, reading slightly soapier from the off. The heart is the main event: an abundant white-floral bouquet of water jasmine, lily of the valley, orange blossom and ylang-ylang, romantic and lush though more uniform than the original's layered jasmine. The drydown is a soft mossy-woody close of cedar, styrax and oakmoss that grounds the flowers without weighing them down. Longevity is moderate and projection is gentle, so it wears clean and elegant rather than loud. A pretty, green-floral daytime pick for spring and summer.
