The Story
Why it exists.
Delina (2020) tells the story of the modern duchess. By day, she is surrounded by the lush fruits and roses of the Versailles gardens, represented by the bright litchi, pear, and Turkish rose. But as night falls, her world shifts to one of secret societies and smoldering intrigue, a realm of smoky incense, precious oud, and warm amber.

The Beginning
Delina (2020) tells the story of the modern duchess. By day, she is surrounded by the lush fruits and roses of the Versailles gardens, represented by the bright litchi, pear, and Turkish rose. But as night falls, her world shifts to one of secret societies and smoldering intrigue, a realm of smoky incense, precious oud, and warm amber.
It's a fragrance that captures a confident duality. It challenges the notion that a floral-fruity scent must be simple or innocent, instead presenting a character who is both charming and formidable, sweet and complex.
The Evolution
The experience begins with a surprisingly bright and juicy explosion of fruit, a moment of pure, uncomplicated delight. This sweetness soon deepens as a velvety rose takes center stage, but it isn't alone; shadows of smoke and wood begin to creep in, transforming the scent from a sunny garden to a moonlit, mysterious courtyard. It finally settles into a warm, intoxicating skin scent of vanilla and amber, with the memory of rose and smoke clinging like a secret.
Cultural Impact
This fragrance arrived as a darker, more niche interpretation of the already iconic Delina DNA, polarizing fans and signaling a shift toward more complex, oud-infused feminines in the luxury market.

This version of Delina isn't just pretty; it's complex and magnetic, with a dark undercurrent. It needs music that blends sensuality with a touch of brooding intensity. We're looking for a modern, confident sound that has both sweetness in the melody and a dark, compelling beat underneath.
