Strong contender
FragDNA score · on paper
The review
Duchess scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Delina.
ALT Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Delina's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $98 per 100ml it costs 82% less than Delina — the 20th cheapest of 25 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength ALT Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Parfums de Marly Delina is lychee, rhubarb and bergamot at first, Turkish Rose, peony and lily at its heart and vanilla, musk and cashmere wood at the end. ALT Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

- lychee
- rhubarb
- bergamot
Heart

- lily
Base

For petals and porcelain. Lychee and rhubarb lift Turkish rose over vanilla and cashmere wood — luminous, feminine, opulent.
