Perfume Parlour Velvet Intox is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Velvet Intox opens with Cognac, Red Berries, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Cypress, Pepper, Ginger, and Clary Sage, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Perfume Parlour's Velvet Intox carries a Statement verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Perfume Parlour's budget version of BORNTOSTANDOUT Drunk Lovers, the boozy cognac-and-berries woody-spicy. It captures the sexy liqueur-and-fruit opening and the warm spiced amber-vanilla base well, though it leans sweeter sooner and renders the complex spicy heart simpler than the niche original.

About

Velvet Intox follows BORNTOSTANDOUT's Drunk Lovers: a rich, boozy opening of cognac and tart red berries cut with bright grapefruit, bergamot, juniper and lemon, sexy and effervescent. The heart brings aromatic heat - pepper and ginger over green clary sage and cypress - before the drydown turns warm and indulgent: vanilla and amber melting into sandalwood, musk and Virginia cedar, deepened by benzoin, cinnamon, cardamom, patchouli and vetiver. Against the original, the PP take keeps that intoxicating cognac-and-berry signature but tips into the sweet, sugary phase sooner and renders the tense, complex spiced heart simpler and flatter. Drunk Lovers was a strong cold-weather performer (8+ hours); this dupe holds reasonably for a budget oil but projects and lasts a bit less. A warm, boozy, sensual spicy-woody for cold-weather evenings and dates.
