Perpetuum vs London

Shared character

The two scents intersect on three ingredients – grapefruit, amber and sea water – providing a common fresh‑aquatic‑amber base, though they belong to different fragrance families and have no shared accords.

How they differ

Both fragrances share the notes grapefruit, amber and sea water, but they diverge elsewhere. Perpetuum adds lemon, cedarwood, vanilla, musk, vetiver, tonka bean, apple and spearmint, giving it a broader citrus‑woody‑oriental palette. Its unique accords are described as ambery (oriental) and woody. London’s only exclusive note is lavender, and its sole unique accord is aromatic fougère, positioning it in a more classic aromatic‑fougere direction.

Who each suits

Perpetuum’s blend of bright citrus, sweet vanilla, earthy vetiver and aromatic spearmint would likely appeal to wearers who enjoy vibrant, multi‑layered compositions that feel energetic and suitable for daytime or warmer seasons. London’s focus on lavender and an aromatic fougère structure makes it a fit for those who prefer a more traditional, clean‑herbal masculine scent, often favored in cooler weather or formal settings.
