Two Flavours

Name: Two Flavours Eau de Parfum
Brand: Perfume Parlour

Perfume Parlour Two Flavours is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2007. Two Flavours opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Incense, settles into a heart of Cedar, Rose, Jasmine, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Benzoin. Perfume Parlour's Two Flavours carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Two Flavours chases Guerlain's revered Spiritueuse Double Vanille - that boozy, smoky vanilla laced with incense, a soft floral heart and resinous benzoin. The dark-vanilla mood lands, but it reads flatter and sweeter, missing the original's complex booziness and slow, smoky elegance.

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

A budget take on the near-mythical Spiritueuse Double Vanille by Guerlain, Two Flavours opens with a curl of incense smoke, bergamot and pink pepper before the heart adds a soft floral lift of Bulgarian rose, jasmine and ylang over dry cedar. The base is the star and the reason anyone reaches for this: a rich, slightly boozy vanilla deepened by resinous benzoin, carrying the dark, smoky-sweet warmth the original is famous for. Set against the real SDV it reads more two-dimensional, the vanilla sweeter and the boozy, incense-laced complexity dialled back, so it trades some of the Guerlain artistry for an easier, comforting vanilla. Projection is moderate and turns intimate after the first hours, with respectable rather than standout longevity. Even so, for the money it captures that luxurious dark-vanilla signature convincingly - a smoky, sensual sweetness that suits cool-weather evenings, dates, cosy nights and formal occasions, reading as sophisticated, comforting and quietly seductive.
