Perfume Parlour Stylish Dame is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Stylish Dame opens with Bergamot, Cardamom, and Passionfruit, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Ambergris. Perfume Parlour's Stylish Dame carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Stylish Dame targets Shaik's Chic Shaik No 30 - the sensual floral-woody-musk with its passionfruit lift, rose-jasmine heart and warm vanilla-patchouli base. The dupe captures the fruity-floral-patchouli character but renders it flatter and sweeter, with the polished warmth simplified and longevity sitting closer to the skin.

About

Stylish Dame opens fresh and fruity - juicy passionfruit lifted by bergamot and a touch of cardamom, the bright start that gives Chic Shaik No 30 its appeal. A rose-and-jasmine heart blooms next, threaded with patchouli and more passionfruit for a seductive, slightly chypre feel, before a warm base of vanilla, tonka, patchouli and ambergris carries it down. Against the original this budget version reads sweeter and a touch flatter, with the elegant balance of fruit, flowers and woody musk simplified. It wears as a romantic, alluring fruity-floral - versatile across the cooler seasons and suited to date nights, evenings and daily wear. Projection is modest and longevity skin-close after the opening hours, the usual budget trade against the well-lasting EDP original. As a smell-alike it captures the warm, feminine passionfruit-rose-patchouli signature while losing a little of the polish and staying power.
