Blackburn's Parlor delivers a hyper-realistic, almost edible impression of a banana split — bursting with fresh banana, melted chocolate sauce, caramel, vanilla, and whipped cream. It opens with an intense, candy-like sweetness that evokes a frozen dessert, with the banana note being crisp and natural rather than artificial. As it dries down, the fragrance evolves into a creamy, subtly cinnamony vanilla ice cream with hints of waffle cone and cocoa butter, giving it depth and sophistication beyond its gourmand simplicity. The sillage is moderate to intimate, and longevity is moderate — not powerful but present throughout a full day or night. The oil form contributes to its realistic texture, making it ideal for intimate wear, and the scent is best enjoyed in warm seasons or when you're seeking a playful, indulgent fragrance that lives up to its name.
