Parfums de Marly has been enchanting fragrance lovers with its opulent and innovative scents, embodying the spirit of 18th-century French elegance.
The Delina collection, brought to life by the visionary perfumer Quentin Bisch in 2017, crafted each fragrance to balance contemporary flair with a tribute to French court traditions.
I love how each Delina creation layers the intoxicating elegance of Damascena rose with a medley of exotic fruits intertwined with that sensual, musky base.
Best Delina Perfumes
Where the elegance of rose meets sensual fruits and musk, here are the best Delina perfumes from Parfums de Marly every girl should consider.
1. Delina Eau de Parfum
Review
To me, Delina Eau de Parfum is the ultimate rose-centric scent, effortlessly balancing fruity and floral with woody notes.
This elegant composition opens with a fruity burst of rhubarb and lychee before unfolding into a bouquet of Damascena rose, peony, and hints of vanilla.
Dry-down reveals an irresistible musky base with woody touches, but rose remains the star of the show!
Top Notes:
Rhubarb, Lychee, Bergamot Essence
Mid Notes:
Damascena Rose, Peony, Vanilla
Base Notes:
Cashmeran, Musk, Vetiver
Seasons & Longevity
This elegant fragrance sings in spring and summer. I find it wearable for daytime and evening, a stroll through blooming parks, or a romantic al-fresco dinner!
The longevity is impressive, keeping its charm alive for 7+ hours.
2. Delina Exclusif Parfum
Review
Delina Exclusif Parfum is a decadent and luxurious interpretation of the original Delina, infused with additional powdery vanilla undertones.
It opens with a luscious blend of pear, lychee, and hints of citrus before revealing a velvety heart of Damascena rose and a touch of smoke.
I feel that the combination of musk and powdery vanilla in the base makes Delina Exclusif Parfum feel more mature than the original EDP.
Top Notes:
Pear, Lychee, Grapefruit
Mid Notes:
Damascena Rose, Incense, Vetiver
Base Notes:
Vanilla, Musk, Evernyl
Seasons & Longevity
I would say this one’s best enjoyed during autumn, winter and early spring.
It’s a classic choice for formal events or an elegant night out, enveloping you in its floral embrace that lingers for 6+ hours.
3. Delina La Rosée Eau de Parfum
Review
Delina La Rosée Eau de Parfum offers a lighter, fresher take on the Delina signature, capturing the delicate beauty of dew-kissed blooms in the early morning light.
A refreshing medley of lychee, pear, and bergamot essence opens up to an ethereal heart of Damascena rose and peony with a fresh aquatic twist.
The gently musky base adds a delicate, comforting finish to the fresh rose, reminding me of Chloe Eau de Parfum.
Top Notes:
Lychee, Pear , Bergamot Essence
Mid Notes:
Damascena Rose, Peony, Transparent flowers
Base Notes:
Softwood, White Musk, Vetiver
Seasons & Longevity
This scent shines in spring and summer, with its airy lightness lending itself beautifully to daytime wear, casual outings, or a serene afternoon in the sun.
While softer in projection, it still provides moderate longevity of 5+ hours and a subtle yet delightful trail.
