The review

Sandy scores 6.2 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Delina.

HK Perfumes 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 $158 per 100ml it costs 71% less than Delina — the 25th cheapest of 25 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength HK Perfumes 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. HK Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • lychee
  • rhubarb
  • bergamot

Heart

  • Turkish Rose
  • peony
  • lily

Base

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

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
