Delina Exclusif
Delina Exclusif by Parfums de Marly is a feminine-leaning extrait de parfum from 2018 in the niche price tier. It opens with lychee, rhubarb and bergamot, moves into damask rose, peony and tea rose and dries down to vanilla, cashmeran and white musk. 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.
- Tea Rose A paler, greener rose. Less jam, more stem and fresh petal.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
