By the editors · 2 min readFirst Parfum is the concentrated reading of the 1976 original — same architecture, denser fabric. Black currant and raspberry darken the opening; peach and bergamot keep it from going jammy.
The heart is the white-floral trio that defines the line — tuberose, jasmine, ylang — and at parfum strength it sits much closer to the skin than the EDT. Honey and civet in the base read frankly animalic, balanced by oakmoss, sandalwood and vanilla. As a parfum, it lasts the better part of a day and trails the kind of warm, slightly skin-warm signature that the EDP can only hint at.
