    Belongs To The Olfactory Notes Family Similar to Joop

    Undisputed powerhouse! - It smells identical to Joop! and lasts and projects just the same too. Instantly recognisable and bold. A little really goes a long way with this one, so don't douse yourself in it. It has a cherry-like quality that is unmistakable and really moreish if applied in moderation. If you want a signature scent that other people will smell elsewhere and be reminded of you, this is the one for you.

    I wore this one yesterday, already being a fan of the high street version. The PP version smells so much like it and it seems to last longer too. In terms of the fragrance: I like the twist that incense gives to what would be a dominantly citrus fragrance. Good for wearing to work and for drinks after!

    I own the Prada version and the Perfume Parlour version. They are identical to me. You have to love that kind of sterile austere vetiver scent to 'get' this one. To me it smells clean and serious, however it can smell a bit like fresh bandages to some people!

    I am a bit lover of patchouli in men's fragrance and this one is a great example of how you can get a really fresh and different fragrance without going down the route of generic-aquatic. It lasts and lasts on me and is definitely fresh but in an intruiguingly different way. A bit of a best kept secret to me as I have never noticed it on anyone else, yet when I wear it I get compliments.

    Definitely a different sort of fragrance. Very earthy and a little unusual. It smells like the real thing which itself is quite an aquired taste. It has a slightly petrol-y fragrance. I'd say a cold-weather, nightime scent. One I'd wear for myself when I fancy something different, perhaps less so one to wear to please others.

    I can't detect any difference between this one and the famous counterpart that inspired it. In terms of the scent, this is probably the safest masculine scent I know. Lovely fresh ginger and a little manly pepper. It's one for when you want to smell good without disturbing those around you. I'd say perfect for business meetings, job interviews etc. Doesn't smell cheap, but doesn't smell particularly generic either. A quietly confident scent.

    Lovely, versatile, masculine, violet leaf, peppery musk fragrance. Perfect for the office or an evening out. It's light and clean but lasts a long time. A real safe choice in my opinion.

    An absolute winner. Women seem to love this scent. It smells fresh, clean, mysterious and unique. The key notes that I get are silver birch and pineapple. The original that this is similar to is way beyond most people's price bracket, so this is a great alternative. I recently sampled the original in Liberty in London and it smells identical to this version to my nose. I've bought loads of oils and sprays from Perfume Parlour but I keep on coming back to this one. I recommend it whole-heartedly, you simply cannot go wrong with this scent.
