Mile High 38

A pineapple lovers wet dream Opens with bright, juicy, realistic, sticky, and sweet pineapple. It quite literally smells like you cut open a super ripe pineapple open and took a big whiff, it's that realistic. As it dries, herbal and dry immortelle, thick and woody patchouli, and a slight twinge of tonka come in to provide some much welcomed depth and accentuate some of the best parts of the fragrance. From this point on it remains fairly linear, especially while in the air. My hat is off to Parle Moi de Parfum, making a pineapple accord this realistic yet still wearable and delicious is a hard task to do but Michel Almairac nailed it. Easily one of, if not the best from the house. While this isn't a fresh pineapple like its other contemporaries (namely Aventus), this never ventures too far into the sickly sweet or gourmand enough to not be able to be used in a professional setting. A pineapple bomb at its core, but a very solid and satisfying one regardless. VERY good longevity with even better projection under some heat, but can still cut through the cold if sprayed accordingly. Song vibe - Escape (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes 9/10. Signature Scent Worthy. TLDR - A blast of juicy, realistic, and sweet pineapple that is bolstered and supported by immortelle, patchouli, and a slight twinge of tonka. A must smell fragrance for any pineapple or tropical fragrance fan. Super versatile, and a great going out scent during a hot summers night, or heading to the office on a brisk fall morning. A very cheeky and fun fragrance. Side Note - This scent, and the whole line from PMdP for the most part is FANTASTIC for layering. If you ever want to add a splash of sweet pineapple to the top of any heavier fragrance, this really does the job well. HIGHLY recommend spraying this over something super leathery :)

Mile High is a tropical fragrance. It is all about the sweet pineapple combined with a wonderful tonka bean. It doesn't smell like Aventus at all, it heads more the tropical route. The pineapple is not fresh, but more sweetened, similar to a pina colada. At times it gives off an almost coconutty vibe while remaining masculine. It is extremely wearable and pleasing. Also personally this is one of the more unique fragrances i have smelled in a long time. I cannot compare it to any other fragrance. It isn't your typical tonka fragrance, this one is pineapple done in a personalized way. You can get away with wearing this fragrance anywhere. It works in the summer and it will work in the winter. The performance is strong but not in your face. The pineapple is silky and airy while the tonka and patchouli bring in a sturdy backbone. It easily lasts me a whole day. After 8 hours I can still sense it on my neck. The sillage is smooth and airy, and definitely noticable for hours after applying. The scent is fairly linear in the sense that the pineapple stays for almost the entire cycle, and I glad it does. Id rather have a stellar linear fragrance than a dynamic fragrance that only had a good opening. Do yourself a favor and try this masterpiece, I cant really see anyone disliking it. For me, Mile High does something unique and new. It isn't challenging in the sense of an Interlude Man but it is practical. The later is more important to me as i can easily wear this to a full-day of work. This is niche done right, from a caring and personalized house that delivers unique yet wearable fragrances.

I apologize, but this fragrance is like catnip to me. I'm completely captivated. This fragrance, in my opinion, is a standout and truly unique. Despite having just 4 notes, this fragrance is incredibly engaging and complex, offering a sensory journey. If I compare this fragrance to Lamar Kajal, I would say that I prefer to wear Lamar in happier, airier circumstances, while Mile High feels like a deeper conversation with my inner self. The fragrance bursts forth with a vibrant, fruity-sweet accord, tempered by subtle undertones of bitter zest and a whisper of spice. A juicy pineapple note dominates the initial impression, a tantalizingly natural and authentic opening. The heart of the fragrance is a complex blend of rich, deep notes. It's a challenging composition, inviting the wearer to embark on a sensory exploration. With a subtle masculine edge and a hint of leathery intrigue, the fragrance possesses an undeniable allure. Its fruity-gourmand character is both playful and sophisticated, making it a versatile choice for any occasion, from sultry summer nights to crisp autumn days. [IG- Discover Special Scents]

This is my second purchase from Parle Moi de Parfum, the first being Chypre Mojo, and I must say that both are very enjoyable. Winter wearing, dry air, cold skin. Despite the dirty reference, Mile High is an incredible, photorealistic and very cheerfull mango! I know it says ananas in the notes, but my brain interprets this lovely juice as all the stages of ripeness of mango, mixed together. This is what I wanted from Angel eau de Croisiere, head turning (my head first and foremost) tropical essence. Compared to Mile High, Angel is a synthetic mess. The pain of saying so is easily compensated by the admirable qualities of Mile High. On the days when I am mostly home, I reapply every few hours, just to amp up the volume. At the office the initial application is enough to last the day, though it gets quieter at the end. I can not wait to try it in summer, will it get even sweeter? Will it last longer? In any way, I adore it now and wear or smell it every day.

Edit: I don’t get the nay sayers... I just bought a full bottle after trying a sample in my original review. It’s a sweet pineapple made complicated by the immortelle and slightly darkened by the patch. It’s not an Aventus clone but an untrained nose that remembers Aventus would be forgiven for thinking that at first. It’s fresh, summery and beachy. The dry down is interesting and I swear the immortelle makes it turn into a sandalwood woody base thanks to the tonka. Not super strong but it does power away more than you think. It’s the only ‘pineapple’ perfume that works and feels natural yet complicated... Original: Gorgeous pineapple in a nutshell... Glad that I only ordered a sample though for once. It’s true that it has in essesence a presentation similar to Aventus minus the dark woody drydown. If you want an unadulterated pineapple in a proper perfume then this is for you... male or female
