Perfume Parlour 2023 EDP

U £ Statement

Skin Vanilla

Name: Skin Vanilla Eau de Parfum
Brand: Perfume Parlour

Perfume Parlour Skin Vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Skin Vanilla opens with Red Apple, Sugar, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Cashmere Wood, Jasmine, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Oud, Vanilla, and Benzoin. Perfume Parlour's Skin Vanilla carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A budget reading of Phlur's Vanilla Skin - the same cosy, not-too-sweet vanilla dusted with pink pepper and apple over cashmere wood and sandalwood. Skin Vanilla nails the intimate skin-scent character, but the vanilla reads a touch sweeter and simpler, and it loses some of the original's plush depth and 12-hour staying power.

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

Skin Vanilla opens with a playful sparkle of sugar, pink pepper and crisp red apple before melting into a soft heart of cashmere wood, jasmine and lily. It is Perfume Parlour's take on Phlur's Vanilla Skin (2023), the viral skin-scent vanilla prized for being warm and refined rather than dessert-sweet. The dupe captures that cosy, second-skin character well: the drydown lands on creamy vanilla wrapped in sandalwood, resinous benzoin and a faint smoky oud for depth. Compared with the original it reads a fraction sweeter and the woods a little thinner, so it misses some of Phlur's elegant balance and its impressive 12-hour performance. Here, longevity is solid but more moderate, sitting close to the skin. The effect is comforting and quietly sensual - a soft spiced vanilla with a refined woody edge. Best in cooler weather and mild spring days, it suits casual wear, cosy evenings and relaxed dates.
