La Veectus

Perfume Parlour La Veectus is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. La Veectus opens with Grapefruit, Aquatic, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Cedar, Lavender, and Bergamot, and dries down to a base of Guaiac Wood, Vetiver, and Amber. Perfume Parlour's La Veectus carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

An inventive Perfume Parlour mash-up of Paco Rabanne Invictus and YSL La Nuit de l'Homme - the fresh grapefruit-marine top of one married to the cardamom-lavender-cedar sophistication of the other. La Veectus is a versatile day-to-night hybrid, though both halves wear flatter and skin-close compared to the originals.

About

La Veectus is an emulsion of two popular men's scents, and it shows: the opening pairs the fresh grapefruit-and-marine zest of Invictus with the warm, spicy cardamom of La Nuit de l'Homme. The heart leans into La Nuit's smooth, powdery signature of lavender, cedar and bergamot, while the base blends guaiac wood, vetiver and amber for a versatile woody-aromatic close. The result is a clever bridge between a sporty aquatic and a seductive spicy-woody - fresh enough for daytime, refined enough for an evening out. As with most Perfume Parlour fusions, both source DNAs are rendered more two-dimensional and skin-close than the designer originals, with the freshness and the spiced woods each thinner and quicker to fade. It is an easy, flexible day-to-night option that delivers two moods in one budget bottle.
