Delulu

Delulu is my first experience from Oddity fragrances. I decided to start here even though I have the entire collection waiting to be sampled. I'm glad I did. I consider this one of the best fruit centered fragrances I have tried in quite a long time. It's difficult for me to find a fruity fragrance that I enjoy. I'm not really sure why, other than the fact most smell artificial. So much so that it makes me sick. This one does not do that. Not to say that this does not smell artificial because it does. However, they constructed it in a way that is very refreshing in my opinion more than anything else. That could be because of the citrus. I am a huge fan of citrus and always will be. That could be a major factor in why I enjoy this composition and I am aware of that. But I think it's more than that. This does remind me of when I was younger. Certain toys or crafting projects or crayons or clay or something along those lines is in here. I can't tell you exactly what it is, but the essence of that is in here. At one point I got a glimpse of being back in preschool where my mom used to drop me off. In the morning we always had time to play with one thing or another. That particular area where we played had a distinct smell that I always noticed when I went there in the morning. To this day I still remember that smell. I have no idea what it is. It could even be the disinfectant the employees used every morning before the kids arrived. And I will say Delulu has a disinfectant quality about it. I find it so fascinating that other people had this specific memory so much so that they were able to re-create it in a fragrance. What the heck is that smell!? Is it Crayola crayons? Is it the markers? Play-Doh? It has to be something an entire generation all over the world has experienced. The fact that they were able to capture this particular memory really reinforces my admiration and love for this olfactory art. I was not expecting this and I am so thankful for this. Yes I will admit this fragrance may not be for everybody. Remember after all we are no longer in mainstream territory. We are now experiencing Real art and real art does not please everybody. Sometimes it is frustrating. Sometimes we simply blow it off. But sometimes it can move you. It can move you in a way unlike anything else. These moments are what you strive for. And that has been achieved here. So I applaud Oddity. I am now excited to experience their other creations. I can see where they're going and I can trust they are not wasting my time. Brands like this make me fall in love with this art form more every day. At surface this a citrus fruit fresh fragrance. But really, this is childhood in spray form. I highly recommend you at least try to see if they captured yours as well.

i'm in pain, this is my perfect hot weather scent. the sourest scent ive ever tried (and exceeds bergamote 22 in bergamot scent somehow lol). the rhubarb is so rhubarby, i've genuinely never smelled anything like it, which im addicted to. this is not an overly sweet fragrance but its extremely bright and fruity. it is devastating to me how much i like it because it doesnt last very long. on hour three its mostly gone and all im getting is a very light fruit note, with an undertone of pleasant slightly sour fruity-skin with maybe a hint of aquatic? i definitely see what people mean with saying it has a dampness to it. on me, no weed smell like what others have described , on the dry down. now i have to decide if i could drop this kind of money to spray this every 3 hours and feel so springy and fresh and bright. i dont even wanna finish my sample 😭

I auto-buy samples of any new release that contains a rhubarb note, so I was delighted to discover Delulu is very rhubarb forward. The opening is bright and citrusy but bitter in a very aromatic, mouth watering way. Like other reviewers, I'm reminded of hard candies with a sour citric acid exterior. The citrus notes lean more towards the pith and rind than the juice. I don't get much rose from it, but I can see Delulu layering beautifully with a more rose forward scent to help soften those rough edges. When I finish my sample, I'll be very tempted to buy a full bottle.

This smells like organic candy. bright, tart citrus and rhubarb at the start, then a tumble of strawberries, raspberries, and blackcurrant. The rose and osmanthus add a soft floral glaze, while the musk and sandalwood keep it clean and almost airy. It’s sweet, but not syrupy—more like a boutique fruit chew you’d find in a health store, dusted with petals and sunshine. Playful, juicy, and a little eccentric, in the best way

This is TART. Sweet, tangy, brightly colored hard candy with an undercurrent of soft rose. As a rhubarb fan, I’m obsessed with smelling this, it’s SO good. I don’t think it’s something I’d wear though, I think I need this as a candle so my whole house can smell like this.
