Delilah Blanc – Citrus, Amber, Floral, Musky – Eau de Parfum Spray Long-Lasting Fragrance for Women, 3.4 Ounce / 100 ml

Maison Alhambra has done it again with Delilah Blanc! This fragrance is clearly inspired by Parfums de Marly Valaya, and I have to say-it’s a stunning alternative at a fraction of the price. Delilah Blanc opens with a fresh, airy citrus note that's crisp and clean, almost sparkling, very reminiscent of Valaya’s bright top notes. As it settles, the soft white florals start to bloom, creating a smooth, powdery, almost skin-like scent that feels both elegant and comforting. It has that “your skin but better” vibe, with a slightly sweet, musky dry-down that's warm, subtle, and incredibly feminine. The balance between the floral and musky tones is almost identical to Valaya, though perhaps just a touch less refined-but honestly, it’s incredibly close. Performance is excellent for the price point. I get 6-8 hours of wear with moderate sillage. It wears close to the skin after a few hours but still leaves a soft trail, perfect for daytime wear, office settings, or when you want to smell beautiful without being too bold. No harsh alcohol opening, no cheap synthetic dry-down. Just a clean, modern, sophisticated scent. If you love Valaya but don’t want to splurge on a $300+ bottle, Delilah Blanc is an amazing alternative. It’s not an exact 1:1 dupe, but it captures the essence and vibe of Valaya beautifully; fresh, feminine, radiant, and musky-soft. I would definitely repurchase and recommend it to anyone who enjoys high-end, skin-scent-style florals with a warm, musky base. I hope this helps!

I purchased this fragrance expecting a light and fresh citrus scent, but it turned out to be warmer and stronger than I anticipated. Despite that, I find myself drawn to it constantly and cannot stop smelling it. The blend of amber, musk, and soft florals creates a sophisticated and long-lasting aroma that really stands out. I have received many compliments when wearing it, and it works beautifully for both daytime and evening occasions. The 3.4-ounce bottle is sleek and elegant, making it perfect for display on my vanity or as a thoughtful gift. Although the scent is stronger than I initially expected, it is truly captivating and very high quality. For such a low price, you can't go wrong with this. Projection lasted around 5-8 hours for me.

I’ve been using Maison Alhambra Delilah Blanc and really like it. The scent is soft, fresh, and feminine, very similar to Valaya, with that clean and elegant vibe. It’s not overpowering, lasts a good amount of time, and works perfectly for everyday wear. I’ve received compliments when wearing it, and the bottle looks beautiful too. For the price, the quality is excellent, especially if you like Valaya fragrances.

Delilah Blanc opens fresh and soft, then settles into a smooth floral-musky scent with a subtle amber warmth. Smells elegant, feminine, and far more expensive than its price. Great longevity and a beautiful everyday fragrance without being overpowering.

Smells good, but it is very strong. Half a squirt will take care of you all day.

The scent is really soft sweet and sophisticated. What surprised me was how good it was straight out of the delivery package. Usually perfume goes through a little phase of “mail shock” but this was gorgeous right away. It’s a musky clean floral ( not in a grandma way but not childish cotton candy) it’s a very lady like signature scent worthy. So glad I received it and if you’re thinking about it, give it a try. Great value for the money too!

I have never smelled the original by PDM however I know that it has to smell good based on what I’ve reviewed. At $400 a bottle, I can’t! I first started my Maison Alhambra journey by buying a GG dupe by CH. I have loved the smell for several years, but have never purchased my own bottle. I did have the fruity almond by Dosier and that smelled good that paying $30 or $40 for a 1.7 ounce is not really a good goodbye for me. I understand perfumes are expensive and they will not be getting my money no matter how good it smells. That’s just ridiculous. I watched several reviews on this clone and again, although I’ve never smelled the original this smells absolutely exceptional. Stunning in every aspect. My seven-year-old daughter smelled it yesterday when it arrived in the mail and said 10 out of 10. LOL. I will be purchasing another bottle when I run out and I have not even warned her yet. LOL. I know a good perfume and I know a bad perfume. My profile is all over the place but I know what’s good and what’s bad and this is exceptional. I will definitely be dipping my toes into this brand for more dupes.

When I tell you this Delilah Blanc is good, I mean good good. It last a long time too, and on clothes it last forever. My sweater I wore last week still smells like her. The first day I wore her a girl ran me down in the store to ask me what I was wearing, remind you, I was out all day running errands. I can't explain it, but when I wear her she makes me feel so pretty. She smells bright, citrusy and powdery. I do wish the citrus scent stayed longer, but it's still good. I came back to buy a back up, but they been out of stock for a while now, so that should tell you something. !00/100
