The review

French Beauty scores 5.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Vol de Nuit.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Vol de Nuit's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Evidence6.0

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

Guerlain Vol de Nuit is galbanum, bergamot and petitgrain at first, jonquil, narcissus and jasmine at its heart and iris, vanilla and sandalwood at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • galbanum
  • bergamot
  • petitgrain

Heart

  • jonquil
  • narcissus
  • jasmine

Base

  • iris
  • vanilla
  • sandalwood
Galbanum-green narcissus over amber woods; austere, aviator-cool, one of Guerlain's great overlooked classics.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
