Perfume Parlour Evening Time is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Evening Time opens with Green, settles into a heart of Cedar and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vanilla, and Tobacco. Perfume Parlour's Evening Time carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

A budget take on Sospiro's Laylati, the night-time 'Black Afgano lite'. This dupe captures the smoky cedar-patchouli-tobacco mood that defines the original, but plays it lighter and smoother, sacrificing some of Laylati's resinous density and marathon longevity for an easier everyday wear.

About

As its name suggests, Evening Time is built for the dark - a budget reading of Sospiro's nocturnal Laylati. A whisper of green freshness opens it before earthy patchouli and dry Virginia cedar take over, the smoky-woody heart that gives the original its mysterious, almost meditative pull. Tobacco, soft vanilla and warm musk round out a base that hums rather than roars. The niche original is famous for its dense, spiritual smokiness and enormous longevity; this dupe keeps the silhouette but renders it thinner and smoother, the smoke gentler and the projection closer to the skin. Longevity is solid yet shorter than Laylati's near-all-day grip. A brooding, masculine-leaning unisex scent for autumn and winter evenings and formal nights.
