Oriana

Sweet, citrusy, fruity, powdery, white floral, vanilla, fluffy, musky, vibrant, radiant, sparkling, ultra-feminine, chic, sensual, seductive, flirty, charming, whimsical, enchanting, dreamy, delightful, delicious, divine, captivating, alluring, tempting, intoxicating, addictive, luxe, glam, happy, cheerful, joyful, uplifting, intriguing, inviting, cozy, comforting On me this opens with a citrusy and fruity burst of radiant mandarin orange, tart bergamot, and sparkling grapefruit. As it begins drying down it intertwines captivating notes of luminous orange blossom, sweet raspberry, and tangy black currant. The dry down shines with delightful notes of fluffy and powdery marshmallow, airy whipped cream, soft musk, warm ambrette, and sensual vanilla. The most prominent notes on me are the marshmallow, whipped cream, vanilla, raspberry, orange blossom, and grapefruit. Overall, this is a major love for me! This is such an absolutely gorgeous perfume! It always makes me feel so pretty whenever I wear it, and I can’t help but smile each time I smell it! The bottle is just stunning, and the fragrance itself is so very delightful and captivating! The luxe, vibrant pink bottle with its delicate detailing is perfectly fitting of the fragrance it holds! I’m a huge fan of marshmallow fragrances, and this is definitely one of my top favorites! I love how it’s sweet, but fluffy and delicate enough to never be cloying, but also with a definite presence! It’s absolutely full bottle worthy, and would make a wonderful signature scent! I do get similarities to a greater or lesser degree to Kilian LDBS, D&G Pour Femme Intense, JPG Classique Pin Up, Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows, and B&BW Love Unleashed. However, I don’t consider any of them to be close to dupes. There’s a similar dna to LDBS, but I personally think they’re different enough to keep both in my collection. LDBS is a lot more fluffy vanilla marshmallow and orange blossom, while Oriana is a more citrusy and raspberry marshmallow. I don’t really see it mentioned, but the similarity to Marshmallows is about as close as its similarity to LDBS, at least to my nose. Marshmallows is also a fruity and citrusy vanilla marshmallow scent, although it has peach and lemon as opposed to raspberry, grapefruit, and mandarin orange. Oriana feels ultra-feminine, and suitable for women of any age. I think this actually works really well throughout the entire year because it’s sweet and cozy enough for cold weather, but fluffy and delicate enough for the heat. I think it’s fitting for any occasion too; from casual, to date nights, to fancy occasions, and even suitable for work/school. I get exceptional performance with Oriana. The longevity is excellent, it lasts throughout the entire day on me without needing reapplication. The projection is strong as it radiates out at least a feet from me. I only need a few sprays for these effects, so although it has a high price tag it at least lasts forever since a little really does go a long way, and I haven’t had to repurchase yet.

Gorgeous, Sweet, bright, fruity, juicy, citrusy, sparkling, fresh, floral, powdery, musky, cheerful, uplifting, feminine, flirty, sensual, charming, chic, elegant, whimsical, enchanting, playful, tempting, addictive, yummy On me this opens with a sweet and citrusy burst of fresh and juicy mandarin orange, bright bergamot, and sparkling grapefruit. As it begins drying down the citrusy top notes begin mingling with sweetly floral orange blossom, and fruity notes of sweet, slightly tart, and juicy raspberry and black currant. Further into the dry down the citrusy and fruity notes become more subtle, and intertwine with the yummy base notes of sweet, creamy, and airy whipped cream, sugary, fluffy, and powdery marshmallows, and the soft musky and powdery scent of the musk and ambrette. Overall, this is such a beautiful, sweet, juicy, fruity, and candy like scent that I just can’t ever get enough of. This definitely feels feminine to me, and suitable for women of any age. Yes, it’s sweet and fruity, but also has a chic elevated feel to it that keeps it from feeling too youthful. I think it’s best suited for the spring, summer, and the early part of fall. However, I also think it would make a wonderful choice for a signature fragrance. This also feels fitting for all occasions from casual to fancy, and including work and/or school. It’s sweet, but not over the top, and it’s very pleasant. For me it brings to mind a sort of fruity cotton Candy or fruity marshmallow, but with a bright juicy side. I’m somewhat reminded of a few different fragrances by it... ✨Kilian’s Love Don’t Be Shy - This definitely shares the marshmallows and orange blossom, but this one is much less fruity, and a lot more floral overall. It’s also a heavier and warmer scent. ✨JPG Classique Pin Up - Again, this shares the marshmallows and orange blossom as well as having a citrusy side, but it’s also a warmer and heavier scent. I find it closer to LDBS than to Oriana. ✨Flowerbomb Nectar - Although this only shares orange blossom and bergamot with Oriana, and has some rather interesting notes I do still get a slight similarity. It has a very subtle metallic, fruity, sweet cotton candy like scent which is where I find it to be slightly similar. I get excellent performance with Oriana. The longevity is impressive, it lasts throughout the entire day on me. The projection is great, it radiates out about a few feet from me. I also don’t need to spray much at all, so it doesn’t last me for a long time. For reference, some of my other favorite sweet fragrances (besides the ones I’ve already mentioned) include Kayali The Wedding Silk Santal, Yum Boujee Marshmallow, Vanilla 28, Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar, Eden Juicy Apple, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid, Burberry Goddess, The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods, Marc Jacobs Daisy Love Eau So Sweet, Ralph Lauren Tender Romance, Ralph Lauren Beyond Romance, Flowerbomb Extreme, Flowerbomb Ruby Orchid, Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows, Phlur Heavy Cream, Phlur Vanilla Skin, SDJ Summer é Amor, SDJ Coco Cabana 39, SDJ 62, VS Vanilla Lace

Ive had the exact same experience as the reviewer below (Hriska) Oriana is a scent that has remained on my mind regularly since testing it over a year ago. I’ve revisited my sample many, many times over. Today I finally gave in and bought it. I completely disagree that Oriana is a juvenile scent. If I can pull it off in my 40’s, anyone can! You wear what suits you and your personality, regardless of age! I initially chose LDBS over Oriana and previously agreed with others that it was the more grown scent, however my opinion has changed! I sold LDBS because I found it very one dimensional, too heavy on the orange blossom and quite nauseating. I just didn’t enjoy wearing it at all, and replaced it with Marshmallow Maracuja.... Marshmallow Maracuja still has the LDBS DNA, but it’s a little more complex with a mix of tropical fruits. It’s a lovely scent, but just fit me personally and isn’t one I reach for. I’ll now be selling that to replace it with Oriana. I also owned Sintra, but didn’t reach for it due to the Petitgrain note, which I grew to despise. So now I come back to Oriana which is a gorgeous, light, fluffy, creamy and complex scent. I can still smell the orange blossom but find it a lot less linear or as heavy as I find it in LDBS. To me Oriana is definitely a more complex and better blended scent. I can smell the raspberry, cream, marshmallow, vanilla and musk which rounds out the scent beautifully, making it easier to wear than LDBS. I also prefer the mix of berries in Oriana compared to the brighter, tropical fruits in Marshmallow Maracuja. I get no bubble gum or plastic at all, and just to clarify PDM is not a dupe house. Oriana is a beautiful, flirty, feminine and sexy scent, suitable for any age and any season. I personally find it more mature than the other two fragrances. Oriana makes me feel happy when wearing it, and the scent bubble it envelopes you in is very comforting. I adore this and my hubby adores this on me!

Let's start by saying I DON'T do marshmallow, I RUN from fruity scents, pink is definitely not my colour and I am the opposite of everything this perfume is!... Someone sprayed it on me (by the way on that moment I felt I could kill the girl) too far away from home to wash it off and change clothes I had to put up with it, at this stage I am moody! Strange thing is.. throughout the day I was getting wafts of something really delicious and I mean DELICIOUS like I want to eat, and although it's really sweet it is not to the point of getting nauseating, does this make sense? Because for me it didn't. I hate to admit but I became addicted to this overly annoying girl that I just can't live without anymore (I mean the perfume..) so of course I bought a bottle that by the way looks absolutely ridiculous in my vanity because of course it has no resemblance to anything in my collection and I'm overspraying myself day and night with this without any care for other fragrances 🤔 Performance is really bad though, it quickly becomes a skin scent but then it's gone so I take a decant with me and re apply whenever I feel like, that's another first because usually if perfumes are not performing I'm out! I'm a parfums de Marly fan now (I must've killed a fairy just by saying that)

I can see that this one is not for the perfume snobs. Some people wanna smell like leather and smoke and will accept nothing else. Well I’m not like that lol. I want to smell like a girl and not like a leather couch in Winston Churchill’s office. Oriana is beautiful. Think of a beautiful woman who is also fun and playful and not just pretty to look at. It has nice floral notes. The floral notes in it actually remind me a lot of Valaya, but in Oriana there’s that added creamy sweetness of the marshmallow of course. Longevity is amazing. The first time I smelled it I sprayed it on my wrist in a store. I was wearing a jacket that day. A week later, I could still smell Oriana on the sleeve of that jacket where it touched my wrist. I do not agree with the “old lady smell” reviews. Always test things for yourself instead of relying on any reviews. Edit: P.S. This smells better in cold weather. I got it in November 2024 and started wearing immediately. I wore it on a lot of winter nights out and always enjoyed it. Now I'm making this edit in July 2025. I tried to wear it in summer, it was not giving me the same experience even though it smelled the same way it always has. Something about the heat makes it a little too much for my senses. Can't wait for fall!
