Our take

What does Meliora smell like?

Meliora belongs to Parfums de Marly's feminine collection alongside Delina and shares its taste for refined fruity florals. The opening is lively and tart, with black currant, red berries and raspberry lifted by a bright orange blossom. The green side of cassis gives the scent its almost leafy freshness. The heart gathers rose, lily of the valley and ylang-ylang into a delicate bouquet, with the lily of the valley adding springlike transparency. The base of musk, vanilla, woody notes and almond offers a creamy, faintly pastry-like softness without weight. It is bright, fruity and clean, with an elegant rather than heady femininity.

When to wear it

Spring and summer, daytime or dates; it suits lovers of fresh, refined fruity florals.

VerdictA charming, well-balanced fruity floral that remains in the shadow of its big sister Delina.

It belongs to the Floral, Green family. Meliora is one of 40 creations by Parfums de Marly in our encyclopedia.
