Card A shareable image of this fragrance - its verdict, notes and profile. Save or copy it to post anywhere.

Perfume Parlour Heroic II is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2007. Heroic II opens with Red Apple and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Leather and Violet, and dries down to a base of Amber, Oakmoss, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Perfume Parlour's Heroic II carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A budget take on Baldessarini Ambre's fruity-amber masculine. Heroic II nails the juicy mandarin-and-apple opening and the warm amber-vanilla drydown, but flattens the original's leathery, boozy depth into something softer and quicker to fade.

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Heroic II opens bright and fruity, juicy mandarin and crisp red apple giving the same fresh-sweet start as Baldessarini Ambre. The heart adds a touch of powdery violet and a soft leather facet for a hint of grown-up character, before the base settles into the scent's real identity: warm amber and vanilla, rounded out by a dry oakwood and labdanum. The original is an oriental woody with a slightly boozy, rich-leather depth and only moderate performance; this Perfume Parlour version follows the same fruity-to-amber arc but reads flatter and sweeter, with the leather softened and projection sitting close to the skin. It stays a likeable, easygoing budget pick, best in autumn and winter for evenings, dates and relaxed wear where its warm, fruity-amber comfort suits cooler weather.
