Deliciae

This has some similarities to Tiziana Terenzi Delox. The rose is a bit more sparkling here, and since there’s no coffee in Deliciae the scent is fresher overall. Slightly sour from the lemon, so not a sickly sweet sirupy rose. Quite linear and simple. Doesn’t project much so it’s more of a skin scent, decent longevity (4-6 hrs). The atomiser is atrocious, and the overall packaging looks a bit cheap for the £177 full bottle price. Good pick if you can find it discounted, otherwise I suggest looking for other options as this is not by any means a groundbreaking or unique scent.

I am usually not a fan of roses, they can sometimes smell dated, or stale or too rigid. But here the rose is softened up with delicious vanilla and made even more gentler with musk. Similar to Montale Roses Musk or Macera version of the Rose musk situation. If you have one of those you probably don`t need this, but very lovely and pretty nevertheless. This is perfect scent to receive the spring in and be fully attuned to it. I cannot wait to wear it in the coming weeks.

Formerly a Harrods exclusive item, Olfactif now carries this and I got a sample with my subscription box. I usually don't even like rose scents but this was love at first sniff. This is a very sweet rose smothered in benzoin and vanilla to my nose. Smells like a gourmand rose. I don't get any lemon or cedar. I purchased a full bottle of this! Edit: the full bottle smells a little different than the sample I got from Olfactif. Less sweet, I do get some more freshness, cedar, and I think also the lemon right in the opening. Not sure why this is, maybe the bottles vary slightly, but I sprayed the sample on one hand and my full bottle on the other and definitely from my full bottle I get more freshness cedar and lemon on top of the sweet rose vanilla combo.

Deliciae is just a more refined, smooth, and more gourmand version of Roses Vanille by Mancera. I enjoy this scent profile but do I need more redundant perfumes in my collection? I think not! Scent: 9/10 only because I truly enjoy rose fragrances 🌹, Sillage: 9/10 last one skin all day, Uniqueness 2/10 you can find this type of scent profile anywhere but the quality no! Memoize did a great job with that when it comes to QUALITY.

I get mostly rose and vanilla from this, a lovely, relaxing, warm scent. It took me a minute to find the lemon, but then I realized it was the lemon of Starburst candy and it fell into place. So lemon Starbursts and rose. I really like it.
