Perfume Parlour Ishq is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Ishq opens with Jasmine and Saffron, settles into a heart of Amber and Raspberry, and dries down to a base of Powdery and Oakmoss. Perfume Parlour's Ishq carries a Statement verdict, a amber-led wear.

Ishq recreates Anfas's Ishq, itself a celebrated saffron-and-amber crowd-pleaser in the Baccarat Rouge family. The dupe keeps the glowing saffron-jasmine opening and that sweet amber-raspberry heart, but tones down the original's remarkable longevity and sillage, wearing closer and a touch flatter while still smelling unmistakably golden.

About

Ishq opens warm and golden with saffron and jasmine, smooth rather than sharp, setting a luminous amber stage. The heart brings a soft, slightly tart raspberry wrapped in resinous amber - sensual and calm, never sugary - the signature of this Baccarat-adjacent style. A powdery, faintly mossy base rounds it off. Against Anfas's Ishq, this dupe captures the seductive saffron-amber DNA and the controlled fruity sweetness, but the original's exceptional projection and trail are dialled back here, giving a more intimate, skin-close wear with shorter staying power. Longevity is moderate for the price. It remains an elegant, sensual amber that flatters cool-weather evenings and date nights, offering much of the original's memorable glow without the cost.
