La Mia Bella Vita

I generally like Guess fragrances a great value for the money and generally great fragrances. This was such a shock that it is probably 95% copy of Delena. I Delena. Exclusif on one arm and this on the other and they did an amazing job at a dupe. If you don’t own PDM run out and get this it will not disappoint. It’s a little sharper in the opening but unless you’re comparing them side-by-side, there’s no need to spend almost $400 on Delina

Romantic, juicy, sweet, elegant, sexy rose fragrance with lychee and pear, a perfect fragrance for every woman. 9/10😍

On first spray, it smells like a sweet, almost candied rose. It’s slightly powdery, with a faint hint of acidity in the background from the lychee, which isn’t bothersome at all. As it dries down, the vanilla becomes more and more noticeable, but to me, the real star remains the rose - it’s what I smell the most. I really enjoyed it because I love sweet rose scents, slightly candied, with an oriental touch, like rose syrup. That powdery, icing sugar-like sweetness is charming as well. La Mia Bella Vita does indeed bear a strong resemblance to Delina and Delina Exclusif - I’d say it sits somewhere in between - and it has the added advantage of being much more affordable than both. A fragrance to keep in mind whenever I crave a sweet, oriental rose.

To me, this smells 'almost' exact to "Safa" by Arabiyat Prestige which is a Delina Exclusif dupe as well as very close to the dry down (NOT the open/mid ) of "Yum Yum" from Armaf - it's like if those two had a baby. There are just so many perfumes now that smell just like this it's hard to tell any of them apart anymore and I'm not really a fan or hater of any of them. I've not even smelled the OG PDM's yet but have been told all of these 'dupes' are just as good so I doubt I'd enjoy the originals. Just not my cup of tea but I can apricate them for sure especially if someone would wear them around me... I'd for sure be giving them the random sniffs because the scent is alluring! My husband HATES them so I'd never be able to wear them anyway, LOL.

Sniffed this the other day in store at JCPenney Beauty - 100% dupe, spot on copy cat, for Delina/Delina Exclusif/Fleur Majesty (by Kayali) - to me it's more like Fleur Majesty - that starchy rosey floral. This is 100% not unique and not needed for my collection, but if you want a really strong Delina/exclusif dupe, this leans more towards the Fleur Majesty, which has nuances of Delina, but this is really just Fleur Majesty to a T - a total copy. So if you want to save money, this is the more affordable-ish option.

Smelled this at GUESS yesterday .. This is *identical to Ameerat Al Arab Prive Rose by Asdaaf.*

Update: It's getting sweeter, not in a cloying way - thank goodness! Generically pleasant. Still not interesting enough to repurchase. I'm wearing it everyday at work. No one's avoiding me. I've even been hugged, but no one's commented either, which is fine. Update: I can't rub the vanilla note forward, so it's noticeable up close. I'm enjoying LMBV more now, but I still won't repurchase. Mistake, impulse purchase. Anyway, I'm too lazy to return it. I thought it could work as an alternative to Armani My Way for work and much cheaper. Not one I htink anyone strictly needs in their collection. On the site for the Danish chain I bought it from, D’Anjou-pear, charmomile oil, jasmin absolue, Benzoin, and musk are also listed. The opening was soft and fruity, and that I could've lived with. Then it turned into a really sharp "rose" and settled into a very generic blond woods and a musk note that isn't listed. If there's vanilla, it's not developing on me, yet. For work, I spray into the middle of my bra, and I have an hour's commute by car, so I shouldn't offend anyone. I just did the same at home, at it's far more pleasant than spraying it directly on my wrist. There may be a hint of vanilla with the musk base, or it could just be my wishful thinking. Not keen on the metallic pink for the bottle, won't repurchase, glad it's only 30ml I have to get through. I'll use it up though.:) Maybe use it to layer with some body sprays I think are too sweet by themselvs. Not a huge regret. The atomizer didn't work at first. That's not even happened for me before with cheap perfumes.

this one is warm, its a bit odd iitially, with a chemical note, this dissipates however and youre left with a very long lasting fragrance. floral, rounded, warm, slightly sweet, i am also tesing some karl lagerfeilds today and they are of a similar ilk. the warm floral rounded-fruity thing. the new paco rabanne million diamonds is different but has a lesser fruity, but warm runded floral hing happening

I found this overwhelmingly powdery and not very pleasant. I’m surprised more people aren’t mentioning how powdery it is and that it isn’t listed in the notes or description.

This is a dupe of Club De Nuit Imperiale which is a dupe of Delina.
