Delina
Delina by Parfums de Marly is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2017 in the luxury price tier. It opens with lychee, rhubarb and bergamot, moves into damask rose, peony and lily of the valley and dries down to vanilla, musk and cashmere wood. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lychee Rosy, watery and delicate. Sweet without being heavy.
- Rhubarb Tart, pink and green at once. Sour fruit with a stalky edge.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
- Peony Pink, watery and slightly peppery. Modern and inoffensive.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
