Enticing

Perfume Parlour Enticing is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003. Enticing opens with Star Anise, Lemon Verbena, and Cassia, settles into a heart of Magnolia, Rose, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Taif Rose, Musk, Vanilla, and Patchouli. Perfume Parlour's Enticing carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Enticing recreates Givenchy's Very Irresistible, the modern dewy-rose floral with a star-anise twist. It captures the spicy-fresh opening and that lush five-rose heart, but the dupe softens the original's polish and wears closer, trading the EDP's strong projection for a lighter, skin-near budget take.

About

Enticing opens fresh and lightly spicy with star anise, lemon verbena and cassia, the piquant spark that gives the original its modern edge. The heart is all rose - layered with magnolia and peony into a dewy, romantic bouquet - before a soft base of taif rose, musk, vanilla and a touch of patchouli rounds it into a gentle, musky-sweet finish. Against Givenchy's Very Irresistible, this dupe gets the signature anise-meets-rose DNA right and keeps the flirtatious, feminine charm, but the original's fuller projection and refined sparkle are dialled back here, leaving a more linear, skin-close wear with shorter longevity. It is a pretty, romantic everyday floral - clean enough for the office, playful enough for date nights - delivering the heart of the original at a budget price.
