    The Experience

    A jammy rose and fruit cocktail laced with smoke and oud.

    Top Notes · 0-15 min

    A deceptive burst of jammy, photorealistic fruit. Juicy litchi and pear practically drip, but a prickle of pink pepper hints that this isn't just a simple fruit salad.

    The Story

    Why it exists.

    Delina (2020) tells the story of the modern duchess. By day, she is surrounded by the lush fruits and roses of the Versailles gardens, represented by the bright litchi, pear, and Turkish rose. But as night falls, her world shifts to one of secret societies and smoldering intrigue, a realm of smoky incense, precious oud, and warm amber.

    Why you'll love it

    This is what a Bond villain's girlfriend smells like. Utterly intoxicating.

    The perfect balance of 'pretty' and 'don't mess with me'.

    Lasts forever and projects like a beast. I can still smell it on my coat a week later.

    Finally, a Delina with some backbone. The oud and incense make it interesting.

    Consider if...

    A confusing mess. The sweet fruit and the dark oud are fighting, and nobody wins.

    Gave me a headache in five minutes flat. It's just... a lot.

    Smells like a rose-scented ashtray. A hard pass for me.

    I love the original Delina, and this just ruined it. Why add oud to everything?
