Parfums De Marly Valaya
An investment piece we like to imagine as couture lingerie – think of this scent as a silken second skin that may be layered beneath whatever you choose, to make it your very own bespoke scent; or delicately flaunted in all its bare glory. The reassuring chicness of pared-back aldehydes and lily of the valley add tender delicacy to transparent orange blossom, while the woodier dry-down gently whispers of airy, cool vetiver, and a whisper of ambroxan-laden muskiness. Gauzy and graceful it may be, but it stays on skin like the memory of a kiss which makes you shiver delightfully at the suggestive innocence of, and feel a blush blooming beneath... We suggest wearing Valaya on its own for your first sniff, to allow your skin to take on its character and experience this new launch in its own right. Later, though, we urge you to try it as a silken, secret layer to experiment with.
Renowned for their scented extravagances, the Royal Court of King Louis XV became known as ‘la cour parfumée‘ – ‘The Perfumed Court’. Parfums de Marly continue that 18th Century tradition of fine fragrance, harnessing the very best of traditional and modern perfumery techniques and materials and revisiting the decadent flacon designs of perfume’s golden age. With stunning bottles and a wide range of luxurious fragrances for men and women that encompass every taste it is easy to fall head over heels for this heritage brand. For truly, Parfums de Marly have cracked the code of mixing historic intrigue with contemporary style.
