Delina La Rosée

A soft, luminous veil of rose and peony, kissed with morning dew and bright fruit. Delina La Rosée is a fresher, more transparent counterpart to the original... less sweet, more ethereal, but no less elegant. If the original Delina is a polished debutante at a formal garden party, La Rosée is her effortlessly chic sister in a linen sundress, barefoot in the grass. Lychee, pear, and bergamot sparkle in the opening, creating a fruity brightness. The heart is watery rose and peony, gentle, feminine, and airy like dew settling on fresh petals at dawn. Underneath, there’s a hum of musk and soft woods, grounding the fragrance in a clean, almost skin-like warmth. Some have compared this to Chloé, and I see it, but La Rosée steers clear of the sharp and detergent-like quality I find challenging in that scent. Here, the freshness feels more natural. More expensive. Like champagne bubbles and cool floral mist on a hot summer day. This is summer in Europe to me. Not in the scorching high heat, but in milder days. The kind of scent that feels entirely at home under an elegant sun dress, wandering from a late breakfast on a terrace to an afternoon stroll through sunlit cobblestone streets in late August. It doesn’t demand attention, but it lingers like a soft breeze... fresh, floral, and undeniably pretty. While it’s often described as youthful I don’t find it immature, just fresh and bright. A scent that feels ageless in its optimism. Of the Delina line, this is the one I wear most. An easy favorite for summer, and a joy to wear.

This fragrance took me on a journey. I had the exact same experience as another reviewer with three very distinct phases. I don’t usually get the full top, middle And base notes experience with most fragrances. With this one there are three very different scent stages. The opening is bright, fresh, fruity and delightful!! Absolutely loved it. Like with most fragrances, this opening dissipated within a few minutes. Then some notes started to emerge that were kind of screechy. Definitely not appealing to my nose. I thought oh no, this is not for me. I’m not sure if it’s the aquatic notes? Not enjoyable to the point I was almost certain this was not a fragrance I am even remotely interested in purchasing. Then, the magic emerged. The final dry down is lovely! Delicate, soft rose. I’d say similar to Delina exclusif, but dialed down. Not so powdery. This is what I wanted Delina exclusif to be in the dry down. This scent profile lasted the rest of the day for me. I might purchase. Still need to sample it further, but to me it’s worth putting up with the temporary screechiness for that beautiful hours long final scent experience. Simply lovely!

I had no expectations when I tried this for the first time. I already had Delina (OG) and loved the summery fruitiness in her. For the first couple of minutes on the paper strip I didn't understand the point of La Rosée because I found it to smell exactly the same as the OG, only weaker, but then I tried it on my skin. La Rosée has the same DNA, and you can clearly tell that it's a flanker, but it's not the same as the OG. La Rosée is a soft, fresh, watery take on the OG. Honestly I don't find any of the Delinas to be rose heavy, both the OG and La Rosée has way more peony and litchi to my nose. La Rosée is a bouquet of fresh peonies with some fruitiness from the litchi mixed with a light, watery musk and a bit of rose in the background. It's so pretty, feminine and fresh, and can be worn all year round. By now it's one of my signature scents. Even my mom, who hates most fragrances, loves this one on me. It's not dated or vintage at all, it's a very modern take on florals. Even though it's a more delicate and light fragrance it has great projection and longevity. It lasts 12+ hours on my skin, and forever on clothes. 10/10.

Delina was introduced to me by a perfume connoisseur who recommended it based on my perfume selection. at first I felt its too light for me but st the same time it became my most complimented perfume. Of course it affected my perception of it and from few times it became my most dominant fragrance ☺️ I was into deep with it :) I love it and I dont mind it at any season. I see perfumes as signatures and I tend to wear them based on the clothes selection and mood of course. With Delina its like you strengthen your feminine and sensual side and performance yet you dont just bother someones nose. Thats what I particularly love about Delina Roses were never my thing in perfumes but then somehow La Rosee got me as well. After many times smelling Exclusive, La Rosee, Oriana , Meloria ... i got into deep with La Rosee. It is like a mood booster to me. Lightens me up every time I smell it ... and I think its perfect duo if you like Delina and you want to have a light switch of notes but yet maintain your signature perfumes

Bought a sample of both this and OG Delina, but can't decide which I love more. I keep going back and forth. Thought for sure it would be this one, since I'm not such a fan of incense in fragrances, but the original doesn't pull much incense at all on my skin (as opposed to the dupes I've tried!) La Rosée opened smelling like roses and...black permanent markers, maybe (?) on me. Truth be told, I liked that smell as a kid. But i don't want to smell like that now! Luckily, it quickly dissipated and although the fragrance went through a few changes (becoming more intensely rosy over time, then ultimately more peony), it stayed lovely and pleasant. On me, it even has more longevity than OG Delina. But I think I may actually prefer the bit more complexity and the rhubarb aspect the original has to offer. If the idea of incense doesn't appeal to you, La Rosée is similar to Delina, but more of a sweet and innocent fragrance.
