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

Mexican Rawhides is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Acqua Di Parma Colonia Leather. It opens with Lime, leads into a heart of Rose, and dries down to Cedar, Guaiac Wood, Leather. The overall character is citrus with woody and floral facets. It is a lighter, more linear interpretation than the original - less of the expensive nuance, but the headline accord comes through clearly for casual everyday wear.
