Perfume Parlour Flowery Wood is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010. Flowery Wood opens with Cinnamon and Saffron, settles into a heart of Rose and Litchi, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, Cedar, Oud, and Guaiac Wood. Perfume Parlour's Flowery Wood carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A budget take on Kilian Rose Oud, Flowery Wood carries the same rose-and-saffron opening melting into a smooth oud-and-guaiac base. It reads a fraction flatter than the seamless, velvety original, but the wearable, refined rose-oud character comes through.

About

Flowery Wood opens on a rich Bulgarian rose laced with bittersweet saffron and a whisper of cinnamon, mirroring the floral-forward start of Kilian Rose Oud - more rose than wood at first, just like the original. The heart deepens with a tincture of rose and a soft, fruity litchi, holding the lush, romantic core that makes the 2010 niche release one of the easiest rose-oud fragrances to wear. As it dries down, a smooth oud emerges over guaiac wood, earthy cypriol and dry cedar, lending the warm, slightly sweet, velvety woody finish the Kilian is famous for. The genius of the original is how seamlessly the rose, oud, saffron and woods melt into one another; as a budget dupe, Flowery Wood reads a touch more separated and flatter, with the individual notes sitting slightly more distinct than the Kilian's black-velvet blend. Still, it captures the refined, wearable rose-oud signature without the niche price. Performance is solid, with a close, evening-appropriate sillage. A sophisticated rose-oud for cooler-weather wear.
