Perfume Parlour Modern Glance is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Modern Glance opens with Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Amber. Perfume Parlour's Modern Glance carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Modern Glance trails Dior's New Look 2024, Francis Kurkdjian's stark aldehyde-incense-amber study. Perfume Parlour keeps the clean aldehydic-to-amber arc but rounds off the original's divisive metallic sharpness, giving a warmer, more wearable read that loses some of the Dior's luxury crispness.

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

Modern Glance opens on a bright wash of aldehydes, that clean, soapy, faintly metallic sparkle that Dior's New Look 2024 used to such polarising effect. Where the original could read sharp and almost like luxury bath soap, Perfume Parlour smooths the aldehydes a touch, so the opening is airy and luminous without the same bite. The heart reveals frankincense, lending a warm, gently resinous depth that softens the cool start. The drydown is the main event: an enveloping amber glow, warm and a little sweet, that lingers close to the skin. It is a simple, elegant three-act structure rather than a complex composition, which suits its budget framing. Longevity is moderate and projection stays restrained. A refined, mostly cool-weather scent for the office, formal occasions and quiet evenings.
