Best Chypre Mojo 45 by Parle Moi de Parfum Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

A fruity perfume tempting you with ripe mango, sweet melon and juicy grapefruit and sandal (adding extra structure to these aqueous components).

Bon Parfumeur open olfactive dimensions and invite you to add your own story. Try 202 if you like the exotic fruit theme, sweet citruses and soft woods.

Perfumer for 202: Karine Dubreuil-Sereni.

Inspired by the mythical nectar of the gods, Ambrosia opens with the sweet, delicate notes of plumeria and mango, layered with the lush richness of peach, lychee, and coconut. The heart reveals the creamy depth of heliotrope, musk, and guava, while wafts of French orris, Mysore and Sri Lankan sandalwood, Indian tuberose and vintage Ethiopian civet evoke a divine atmosphere—capturing the essence of heavenly indulgence.

Wanna smell like an old Stradivarius or a posh French table? Didn’t think so.

Rosewood is the known go to for fine furniture and violin makers for centuries. But it has a sexy secret side: its amazing aroma. By distilling its oil we get a sweet, delicate woody scent. Lovingly mix that with the light greens of mango and neroli and, following feedback from our wonderful ådventurer members the amazing addition of dear old mary jane (that’s marijuana to you – ask yer dad). It now takes on a whole new degree of intoxicating ethereal sophistication.

Just like a beautifully played Ravel violin concerto. Well kinda.

Beso Deseo es el instante previo. La tensión que se construye en silencio antes de que todo ocurra.

Una fragancia que une la intensidad del oud con la luminosidad de las frutas — sensual, elegante y profundamente adictiva. La chispa invisible entre dos miradas hecha perfume.

Fruit punch with emphasis on the PUNCH. Scratchy-sweet pineapple joins forces with crisp green apple and rich mango for a tropical explosion. Before the dust settles, soft almond and coconut infuse the floral and woody haze.

Mango Sticky Rice pays homage to Thailand’s most beloved dessert, enjoyed for generations at temple fairs and family gatherings. This scent celebrates the harmony of juicy mangoes, tender sticky rice, and creamy coconut milk. Buttery, luscious and mellow.

A carefree fruity progression of sweet citruses, honeyed jasmine and delicious mango.

Nirmala means “pure” in Hindi and the perfume is a bright generous formula akin in its vibes to the colorful Holi festival of colors. A celebration which involves people throwing colored powder on each other and squirting each other with water guns.

New 2019 packaging: crimped spray (as opposed to the previous design of screw-on self assembly spray).

Perfumer: Bertrand Duchaufour.

Or du  Sérail exudes almost gooey intoxicating sweetness of a cigar soaked in rum with hints of candied fruit and honey at the edges.

You can relate to this perfume if you ever discovered that secret cupboard your grandma kept spice, vanilla, honey, cognac, candied oranges and chocolate among other fragrant treasures reserved for festive cake making. When you finally locate it, you just linger at the open door and marvel at the rich, sweet aromas, before checking if there’s anything worth secretly tasting. 

Tobacco, very much present in the formula probably stands for the antic cabinet itself. 

The Sniff on Au de Serail:

"There is a sugared, decadent and festive tone about the start of the scent without a doubt. The feeling that it evokes is of a Victorian Christmas celebration; opening a giant box of Christmas sweets and staring at the amassed rows of candied fruit lying in their little compartments, the jewelled colours glinting in the light of the log fire."

Created by Master Perfumer Paul Parquet in 1882, Fougère Royale completely revolutionized the world of perfumes and established modern perfumery as it exists today. As well as creating an entirely new fragrance family, Parquet had succeeded in extracting isolated, synthetic molecules from natural, raw materials. In the dedicated pursuit to expand olfactory palettes with novel, new aromas, he’d derived coumarin from the tonka bean in a worldwide premiere. In its mission to authentically replicate the original, regal masterpiece from centuries past, the reengineered formula cultivates refined, prestigious raw materials of the highest quality and provenance. This masterfully revamped Fougère Royale retains its elegant, noble, refined pulse and its pleasant, pastoral beauty.

The perfectly-blended perfume is redolent of green and fragrant foliage with densely shaded woodlands. Sweet green grasses suggest the freshly-released essences of a crushed and dewy verdure, with an intense hint of newly-mown hay.

Fougère Royale’s nuanced scent composition opens with a vibrant, sparkling cocktail of bergamot, lavender and Mediterranean herbs. The heart follows, with floral-spicy Rondeletia accord, rare in most perfumes. Opening into rich geranium and warm spices. A floral intermezzo showcases rare rose essences and absolutes, spiked by pepper, cinnamon and carnation. Finally, a grand finale of earthy, ambery and woody harmonies, where moss notes join a sensual patchouli enriched by warm coumarinic undertones of tonka beans and clary sage absolute.

Time-honoured accord of roses and jasmine with dashing notes of orange blossom and bergamot but veers away and deepens with patchouli, cedar wood and fanned with a big hearted warm amber molecule, expertly synergised to create a perfectly balanced but hypnotic and opulent perfume.

Ambre Royal is to be treasured and trusted for it is both strong and sensual, warm but powerful.
