Perfume Parlour Village Charm is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Village Charm opens with Mandarin, Blackcurrant, and Litchi, settles into a heart of Water Lily, Jasmine, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oakmoss, Vanilla, and Ambroxan. Perfume Parlour's Village Charm carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A budget take on Bond No 9 Greenwich Village. Village Charm captures the juicy lychee-and-cassis fruity-floral opening and the sweet praline-vanilla-amber drydown closely - a solid clone - though as reviewers note it gives up some sillage and longevity to the original, lasting around 6-7 hours versus the Bond's all-day wear.

About

Village Charm opens bright and juicy - litchi and tart cassis lifted by mandarin, a vivid fruity start. The heart turns fresh and floral with peony, jasmine and a watery water lily. Then the base brings the comfort the original is loved for: a sweet praline and vanilla wrapped in ambroxan and musk, with a touch of oakmoss for texture, an oriental-vanilla finish softened by florality. Compared to Bond No 9 Greenwich Village, this Perfume Parlour interpretation stays close on character - a genuinely solid clone of the fruity-floral-into-sweet-amber arc - while giving up some of the original's projection and staying power, landing nearer 6-7 hours than the Bond's all-day sillage. It remains a cheerful, sweet fruity-floral, lovely for casual days, dates and easy evenings.
