Dark Dream

Perfume Parlour Dark Dream is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006. Dark Dream opens with Sour Cherry and Plum, settles into a heart of Freesia, Orchid, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Musk, and Amber. Perfume Parlour's Dark Dream carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Dark Dream copies Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy - the same dark, juicy plum-and-cherry burst melting into creamy vanilla, amber and musk. The budget version lands the fruity-sweet idea but reads flatter and turns a touch more synthetic, with shorter staying power.

About

Dark Dream opens just like Midnight Fantasy - a sweet, juicy burst of sour cherry and plum that feels playful and unmistakably feminine. A soft floral heart of freesia, orchid and iris bridges into the cosy drydown, where vanilla, musk and amber turn the sweetness creamy and warm. Against the original the budget take is a little simpler and flatter, the cherry reading slightly more candied and the vanilla less rounded, while sillage stays closer to the body. It's still a fun, flirtatious fruity-gourmand for cool-weather evenings and dates - a faithful echo of the dark, sweet fantasy at a fraction of the price.
