Perfume Parlour Yellow Royal is an Eau de Parfum. Yellow Royal opens with Sandalwood, Coriander, and Bay Leaf, settles into a heart of Angelica, Resins, Patchouli, and Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Oregano, Myrtle, Amber, and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Yellow Royal carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Yellow Royal chases Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan, the benchmark herbal amber: the thick resinous-amber base tempered by dry bay leaf and oregano comes through, with vanilla and benzoin lending warmth. The dupe flattens the original's gooey, three-dimensional resin and clips its strong sillage, wearing skin-close, but as a budget amber it captures the distinctive herbal-sweet character for a fraction of the price.

Scent Profile

Composition

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

Yellow Royal opens with a dry, aromatic flourish of coriander, bay leaf and sandalwood that immediately signals its debt to Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan's unusual, almost medicinal overture. A resinous heart of patchouli, angelica and myrrh deepens the composition before a base of thick golden amber, sweet vanilla and benzoin, cut through with green oregano and myrtle, settles into the signature herbal-amber drydown. On skin it wears as a bold, grounded amber scent, sweet and smoky yet bracingly herbal, the way the original surprises first-time wearers. Where Ambre Sultan feels gooey, dense and luxuriously textured, the dupe is more linear and skin-close, the resins reading flatter and the herbal lift less vivid. Longevity and projection are the trade-offs, but for autumn and winter evenings it delivers a faithful, affordable take on the king of ambers.
