Our take
What does Delina smell like?
Launched in 2017, Delina gave Parfums de Marly an emblematic feminine signature, recognisable from its pale pink bottle alone. Everything rests on a rose made modern by fruity, tangy facets. The opening combines lychee, rhubarb and bergamot with a pinch of nutmeg; the effect is crisp and almost fizzy, with rhubarb adding a juicy greenness. The heart of rose and peony is backed by musk and vanilla that round everything out. The base of cashmeran, incense, cedar and vetiver brings a woody, lightly smoky depth that keeps it from turning saccharine. The result is a luminous, fruity, elegant rose that embraces its sweetness while lasting remarkably well.
