Perfume Parlour Prescribed Happiness For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Prescribed Happiness For Women opens with Peach Blossom, Mandarin, Raspberry, and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Peony, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Patchouli, and Skin Musk. Perfume Parlour's Prescribed Happiness For Women carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Prescribed Happiness chases Calvin Klein Forbidden Euphoria's jammy raspberry-and-orchid floral fruity. It captures the sweet, sensual character on a budget, though it reads a touch flatter and more synthetic in the drydown than the original.

About

Prescribed Happiness opens on a juicy, almost candied raspberry lifted by mandarin, peach blossom and passion fruit, mirroring the jam-like sweetness that defines Calvin Klein Forbidden Euphoria. A floral heart of tiger orchid, peony and jasmine adds a sensual, feminine lift, before a base of patchouli, cashmere wood and skin musk grounds it with earthy warmth. Where the original builds a rich, sensual drydown with smooth woods and a hint of suede, this budget version reads a touch flatter and a little more synthetic as it dries, the patchouli less rounded. Projection is moderate to good and longevity is modest at four to six hours, well short of the original's best-case staying power. It is a sweet, flirtatious fruity-floral for casual daytime, light dates and warmer-weather evenings, and an affordable way to enjoy the candied-raspberry charm of Forbidden Euphoria.
