Parfums De Marly Delina EDP

Description

Delina is Parfums de Marly's cult fruity rose, a luminous Turkish rose lit up with lychee and rhubarb, grounded by a soft, musky-woody base.

Created by perfumer Quentin Bisch for Parfums de Marly and launched in 2017, Delina became one of the most celebrated rose fragrances of the modern era. A bright, juicy opening of rhubarb, lychee and bergamot gives way to a full Turkish rose-and-peony heart, then settles into a smooth base of cashmeran, vanilla, white musk and a whisper of incense. Reviewers describe it as elegant, feminine and remarkably projecting, a rose that reads romantic rather than old-fashioned.

Scent Character

• Woody-musky: 35%
• Floral (rose): 23%
• Sweet: 19%
• Fresh: 8%

Translation: although a soft musky-woody base gives it staying power, Delina reads first as a juicy, fresh-cut rose. Lychee and rhubarb keep the Turkish rose bright, modern and romantic rather than heavy.

FAQ

What does Delina smell like?
A bright, fruity rose: lychee and rhubarb over a full Turkish rose and peony heart, settling into a soft musky-vanilla base. Romantic and modern rather than old-fashioned.

How long does it last?
Very good, around 8–10 hours on skin with strong projection, and even longer on clothing.

How is Delina different from Delina Exclusif?
Delina EDP is the brighter, fresher original with more lychee and rhubarb. Delina Exclusif (2018) is a richer, sweeter parfum-strength version with more vanilla and warmth.

Is it a strong projector?
Yes. Delina is known for it. Two sprays is usually plenty, and a heavier hand can be too much in close quarters.
