Parfums De Marly Delina EDP (Tester)
Description
Delina is Parfums de Marly's most iconic modern rose, a sparkling floral-fruity composition created by perfumer Quentin Bisch in 2017 that helped define the niche-meets-mainstream boom of the late 2010s. It opens on a burst of juicy litchi, tart rhubarb, and black currant before settling into a plush heart of Turkish rose and peony, all wrapped in a warm, ambery-sweet base of cashmeran, cedarwood, and caramel-tinged vanilla. The effect is opulent without being heavy — a scent built in the spirit of Parfums de Marly's founding idea: fragrance as a small piece of Versailles-court luxury, made wearable every day. This listing offers the same French-made juice as the retail bottle in official Parfums de Marly tester packaging (no outer box, cap included).

FAQ
Is Delina for men or women?
Delina is marketed as a women's fragrance, built around Turkish rose and peony, though its fruity-woody base makes it approachable for anyone drawn to a bold floral.
How long does Delina last?
Most wearers get 7-9 hours of longevity with moderate-to-strong sillage.
What does a "Tester" bottle mean?
It's the identical Parfums de Marly juice sold in official tester packaging — typically without the outer retail box, sometimes with a plain cap — at a lower price than the boxed retail bottle.
How is Delina different from Delina La Rosée?
La Rosée is the lighter, fresher flanker — more watery florals and less caramel-vanilla warmth than the original Delina.
