“A poetic bouquet built of Turkish rose and transparent flowers, with an opening of pear, and a subtle base of softwood and white musk.”
A blend of transparent water flowers and peony recall multiple notes of fresh, velvety, impertinent, and delicate rose. The most regal of these notes, Turkish rose, unfolds in elegance.
Pear, lychee, and bergamot scents add a gourmand touch while a perceptible but subtle base of wood, white musk and vetiver envelops the senses.
A moment of freshness, Delina La Rosée brightens the skin from morning to night with a vibrant radiance and unforgettable scent.
That fleeting instant known as the “exquisite hour” when day turns to night and the sun gives way to the moon. At that very moment, at the edge of a pond, the dark blue, almost violet irises stretch their long, slender silhouettes and diffuse their bewitching, powdery fragrance into the humid night air.
This sensual bouquet structured with Turkish rose, lily of the valley and peony grows in strength and complexity through a fruity trio of lychee, rhubarb and bergamot spiced with nutmeg. The base notes of cashmere wood and musk give depth to Delina and make it a subtle yet mysterious fragrance.
Its smooth texture penetrates delicately and envelops the skin in a fragrance veil. Nestled in a pretty jar, the Delina body cream is a charming asset for velvety skin.
