A DELICATE FRAGRANCE
French perfume house Parfums de Marly is delighted to celebrate the latest addition to its family of niche fragrances, Oriana. Delicate and airy like a muslin dress, Oriana surprises with a sparkling fruity and floral gourmet, designed entirely as a variation on texture, a ‘mille-feuille’ of flaky sweetness, softness, sensuality, energy and light, which is anchored with euphoric and seductive notes of orange blossom.
Oriana’s top notes include the Parfum de Marly signature citrus splash of mandarin, Italian bergamot and grapefruit which gives way to a suave orange blossom and blackcurrant heart. A crisp, frosted, raspberry heart note is placed on an airy bed of sweet chantilly cream and incredible marshmallow. A base note of musk mallow, used in the 18th century to perfume and powder hair, distils a fresh and clean feeling leading to a warm and comforting musk.
Since its creation, Parfums de Marly has committed to finding and using the finest ingredients to ensure the alchemy of perfume on everyone’s skin. Each formula combines the most natural, rarest, and luxurious essences in perfumery.
Oriana is now available in a new 75 ml frosted pink bottle, and is available across the Middle East.
