Perfume Parlour Warm Water is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Warm Water opens with Citrus, Grapefruit, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Violet Leaf, Basil, and Mint, and dries down to a base of Leather and Vetiver. Perfume Parlour's Warm Water carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Perfume Parlour's budget take on Dior Aqua Fahrenheit, the bright, watery flanker of the leather icon. It nails the citrus-mint-violet freshness and that subtle leather edge, just rendered lighter and shorter than the original's already-modest wear.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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

This is Perfume Parlour's budget interpretation of Dior Aqua Fahrenheit, a translucent, summer-ready spin on the Fahrenheit DNA. It opens crisp and juicy with citrus, tangerine and grapefruit, immediately fresh. The heart brings the signature twist: green violet leaf woven with cool mint and a touch of basil, that distinctive Fahrenheit violet rendered breezy rather than dense. Underneath, Haitian vetiver lends a green-woody footing and a subtle leather note keeps the original's DNA in view without overpowering the freshness. Aqua Fahrenheit itself leans modest on performance - a borderline skin scent after a few hours - and the dupe sits in the same register, fresh and close, with the leather thinner and the citrus a shade more synthetic. For a warm-weather fresh-green daily that nods to a designer favourite, it delivers easy wearability for the price.
