I've been meaning to try some of the drinks out there that call for Parfait Amour, but none of the stores near me stock the Marie Brizard product, which I read in another thread here is regarded as inferior to the unavailable in the USA Bols product. What I do have access to is Creme Yvette and a wide range of orange liqueurs. As I understand it, parfait amour is based on curacao with the addition of vanilla and violet petals. Could I use a combination of creme yvette and curacao to get a flavor roughly analogous to the real deal?
