I smelled it in store and I do think it’s more of a summer scent. It doesn’t project much but I was super surprised with the longevity, I showered and could still smell it after. It makes sense that it’s the same perfumer as Delina because they do have the same type of musk. Not sure if it’s worth the full price but I want to try it again once it gets colder.
I have this fragrance. I was gifted it. I love Lilly of the valley with vanilla…unique thing happened to me wearing this,my neice spritzed a little obsession on me ( I haven’t used Obsession for years ) but wow it made this fragrance last at least 12-14 hours and combined the fragrance was amazing so different and so many compliments. Nice to see you Demi ❤
I tested it yesterday and loved it. I sniffed my self all day, had a shower, went to bed and the scent was still present and lovely. It is like light blue, musk therapy and Oriana had a baby. Perfect for summer and right up my ally. Bought it today and allready got compliments! Highly recomended!
Demi, I think you are the first one to review Valaya. Thank you!! It sounds so perfect something I would like. Can’t wait until it hits the stores. Thank you for getting this video out to us so quickly! 😊❤️
Gotta admit, PdM have been off my radar since the Layton, Herod & Delina days. I loved Quentin Bisch's Delina's & I have his Guidance & Purpose on the way from Amouage.
@@demirawlingI have just ordered mine after watching your review. Thanku so much u do make me blind buy and have not regretted any of the choices yet. On another note I just cannot find vibrato anywhere in the uk on trusted retailers. Pls do let me know if u have any suggestions. Many thanks
Can’t wait to try this fragrance. Love parfums de marly. I guess I read on the website it was created by Julien Sprecher. Just went on the website to check the notes and saw the perfumer name on it. However that’s a small detail. You described the scent so nicely that I want to try immediately… thanks.
I just read on the Interwbs that Pierre is the son of the owner of PdM. Since the Internet is the wild west when it comes to reliable information, is that true? Have you ever disclosed that for transparency in any of your vids just so your viewers know you're not being influenced by those relationships (if true)? No judgment whatsoever, just curious. Love your channel and always tune in to catch the latest and greatest.
That would make sense. She’s always talking up initio and Parfums de Marley . And doesn’t ever say anything positive about creed or any other competitor of Parfums de Marley.
Would love for you to review Tiffany and Co. perfumes. There's one called "Rose Gold" that is my friend's signature scent and she gets compliments all the time!
Definitely think you are the 1st to review this fragrance & I have been waiting to hear about this scent! I heard it was a fresh scent, kinda comparing it to MFK's "724". I can't wait to get my nose on it as I'm attempting to slow down with my blind buys even though I'm pretty damn good at the blind buys!
I loved this sent in the store and on tester. I brought home a sample and it is just way too strong for me. My body chemistry cancels out the softness or something and I feel like I'm opening a box of powder detergent under my nose all day. Not an awful smell, just so so strong. I tried it a second time (1 spray of the sample) because i washed my clothes after the first time and I could still smell it!! To me it's beast mode. My husband also didnt like it on me. I'll add that Dalina (the OG) did not dry down pleasantly on me either even though I liked it in the store. Maybe white florals aren't my thing.
I'm looking for samples of it. I bought the 7 sample perfume de Marley purchased straight from their on line store. Oh my gosh! They are ALL my signature scent. I'm in heaven! Can't wait to buy larger bottles of them all! It's all I need. Perfum de Marley are outstanding fragrances! My soulmates!
Thanks for sharing, I went and smelled it it Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s in NYC. I could only do it on a strip as the sales associates refused to make a sample or even talk to me about it :/ unfortunate. It def smelled nice but I was not wowed in store - probably cause there are so many scents floating around. Need to test on skin.
I smelled in the store today,I was curious about Delina,but I love this one,amazing parfum, sprayed on paper and my whole room smells amazing now,it's very strong and fresh at the same time 😊
Yesterday splurged on 3 bottles of lyton, lyton exclusif, carlisle in a same shot, couldnt resist them. they are just wow, espeacially lyton exclusif with such a dark and animalistic scent, dry down is phenomenal...
Your recommendation and descriptions are the best, Demi! May I ask you how you take care of your beautiful skin? Do you use a selftanner? For my wedding I'd love to have this kind of glow on my skin and face! ❤️☀️😍
The bottle looks beautifullll 💕 you look beautiful too Demi! Just wondering which is a lot fresher, this or MFK 724? 🤔 Cause it just gave me that 724 vibe
It lasts a long time. I bought this for my girlfriend but sprayed it on myself to test it. It lasted through a tough sweary workout and a shower. The next day I could still smell it on my arm.
Hi Demi, I’ve heard rumors that PDM and Initio are your partner’s family business, is that true? If so, did you get a chance of peeking at the processes used to conceive a fragrance? Maybe you could film a video about it? Thanks! ❤
Hi love! Pierre has no involvement in PDM himself but we’ve definitely learned a lot about the process of creating a fragrance from our time in the industry! I think we’ll make a documentary on Sniff regarding the creation process 😌❤️
Thank you for your review, I ´ve tried some of your recomendations and I seem to have similar taste to yours so i´m definetly try this one. Wish the best year for you
The look of the frosted bottle reminds me of Issey Miyake. I think I would love it. I hope it lasts on my skin. I cant ever use LB sadly it smells like nothing on me.
Thanks for this video! I have a request please!!! After much experimentation I’ve concluded I will only be happy with spending my money on beast-mode performance fragrances. Could you please do a video of top beast performers in the niche market broken down by the best in each category like - soft Florals, Gourmand’s, Fresh/Clean, etc.?
Thank you for the review, you're the only review I could find. Would you say Valaya has a hint of maturity similar to scents by Narciso? I generally stay away from those. How would you compare Valaya to Glossier You and Phlur Missing Person?
Thanks for the review. You are the first. I don't blind buy but I read Nordstrom will have it February 1st. So I will be at Nordstrom's on February 1st. I subscribe to 3 other fragrance channels but because of this review I wil subscribe to yours
I seen reviews on that one and not all were good. Decided to spray it in the shop… was lovely, but the more I wore it the better it was getting ❤ so I would say try it out yourself
Thank you for your timely review!! Two fragrances came to mind as you were describing it - I was about to ask how it compares to Oriana and then you mentioned it right at the end ☺️ How would you say the scent profile compares to Dama Bianca?
My question as well....how would you say it compares to Xerjoff Dama Bianca? That one I do not care for but would be willing to give Valaya a try. Also thought of the new MFK 724 as another person has stated. Thanks Demi. :)
Thanks for another great video! Question: not that they smell alike, but do you like Valaya or Initio Musk Therapy for a clean-like, mushy, citrusy fragrance (regarding scent profile and performance)?
I sampled Valaya today. Wore it all day at work and unfortunately was not a fan. Something about the smell did not match my body chemistry. I ordered the discovery kit from the brand and was not fan of any of the fragrances. I’m not sure if niche perfumes is for me. 😢
Valaya's aroma has me playing detective 🕵️♀️ - Fleur Narcotique, is that you in disguise? 🌸 Mr. Quentin, we're onto your scented shenanigans! Time to cook up a fresh bouquet of fragrant surprises! 🍃👃💐 #NoseNostalgia #ScentSleuth
Hi Demi. I recently purchased this scent for my wedding and i also bought Initio Musk Therapy. I was thinking of layering them on the day of my wedding. Any thoughts?
Sounds pretty🌺I love a good floral. Can you do a video for each category of perfume..including different price range perfumes..from budget friendly to niche $. .. 🎀 10 fragrances..per category Floral category...etc. Fruity Sexy Clean Sweet Vanilla Unique Addicting
Is it me or would this make a beautiful wedding fragrance bottle? I haven't tried it yet but the bottle is so pretty!
Yes! You’re totally right 😂❤️
She's wearing white too. What are you hinting at Demi?? 🤔😆
Yes very bridal looking 🤍
All of their bottles are gorgeous like this. Check out Safanad 🍊
Agree!
I smelled it in store and I do think it’s more of a summer scent. It doesn’t project much but I was super surprised with the longevity, I showered and could still smell it after. It makes sense that it’s the same perfumer as Delina because they do have the same type of musk. Not sure if it’s worth the full price but I want to try it again once it gets colder.
Omg your blonder hair, white top and the presentation of the perfume! All is so cohesive. Looking beautiful❤️ and YES you are the first to review.
I have this fragrance. I was gifted it. I love Lilly of the valley with vanilla…unique thing happened to me wearing this,my neice spritzed a little obsession on me ( I haven’t used Obsession for years ) but wow it made this fragrance last at least 12-14 hours and combined the fragrance was amazing so different and so many compliments. Nice to see you Demi ❤
Do you think it would be too feminine for a man, or no?
@@semyaza555 I’m not sure. With the Obsession, maybe not. Alone…I’d think twice about it
Do you think it is the same way as Delina la rosee or fleur narcotic?
@@semyaza555 - Absolutely too feminine for a guy
@@Hard_Car_Life Damn. Thanks.
I tested it yesterday and loved it. I sniffed my self all day, had a shower, went to bed and the scent was still present and lovely. It is like light blue, musk therapy and Oriana had a baby. Perfect for summer and right up my ally. Bought it today and allready got compliments! Highly recomended!
I totally got musk therapy vibes as well.
Can’t wait for my sample ❤ Seems like Valaya is summer fragrance. I have almost the whole women’s collection (except Oriana). They never disappoint
Oriana is the best 1!
Where did you order your sample from?
What an amazing review.
My daughter’s birthday next week and I think this is a perfect fragrance for her, thanks Demi
Lucky girl! I’m sure it would make a beautiful gift 😍🙏🏻
Demi, I think you are the first one to review Valaya. Thank you!! It sounds so perfect something I would like. Can’t wait until it hits the stores. Thank you for getting this video out to us so quickly! 😊❤️
@carlxy lol seriously?
@@carolynr89 yep
@carlxy lol finally someone said it
Oriana is my FAVORITE, and I love la rosee, can't wait to try it!
Hi Demi, could you possibly begin all your reviews letting us know if the scents are for men, women or unisex please?
I REALLY REALLY thank you for your description Demi!
I have trusted you and i ordered for my wife ,for Valentines day!
She loved it 🤩!
Quentin Bisch also created all Fragrances for Marc Antoine Barrois including Ganymede. Neroli Amara for VCA and many many more he is a great perfumer
One of the best!
Gotta admit, PdM have been off my radar since the Layton, Herod & Delina days. I loved Quentin Bisch's Delina's & I have his Guidance & Purpose on the way from Amouage.
Hey Demi omg I cannot wait to hear all about this! PDM has done some incredible fragrances I hope Valaya doesn't disappoint
YES! I love it 😍🙏🏻 thank you for your comment Abi!

I don't hear much about them at all. That would be interesting.
I love how you do your videos in front of your fragrances now , DEMI! super jelly! I so want your collection. huge admiration.❤❤

Hi Demi, you look amazing! The best wishes for 2023, only positive vibes♥️
The vibe I'm getting from the notes is this is in line with the whole "transparent fragrance as a second skin" trend.
I wish I could get hold of it right now. It looks and sounds like something I would love as my wedding perfume, which is coming up.
Finally a review and in addition it’s from one of my favourites TH-camr! Thank you Demi so much :)
Thanks for the upload. Your video is the first review I've seen from Valaya so that counts.
Demi, I was waiting for your video yesterday. Thanks for not forgetting about your supporters/subs.
Never!!! I would never forget about all the people that support me…😩❤️
Can’t wait to get this one. Thank you Demi! 😍
I love how you matched your outfit to the fragrance bottle ! 🤍
Sounds wonderful! I’ll wait for it to reach Australia in a years time 🤭😂

Uh oh! I think this will be right up my alley! THANK YOU, Demi! Happy New Year! xoxo
Happy New Year Abby 🥰 I’m sure you’ll love it!!! 😍
Yeah!!
Also like to hear about Kilian cant stop loving you.
And guidance from amouage
Ooo!! Yes for sure ❤
Yesterday splurged on 3 bottles of lyton, lyton exclusif, carlisle in a same shot, couldnt resist them. they are just wow, espeacially lyton exclusif with such a dark and animalistic scent, dry down is phenomenal...
Thank you Demi! Wishing you all the best life has to offer in 2023!
Delina hair mist a favorite - very excited about this one.
Love a good floral… and I am always lookin’. Thanks for posting. I will have to get a sample!!!
Welcome back ..Happy 2023🎉
🎉🎉 happy new year!! So excited for this review!
Your recommendation and descriptions are the best, Demi! May I ask you how you take care of your beautiful skin? Do you use a selftanner? For my wedding I'd love to have this kind of glow on my skin and face! ❤️☀️😍
Love the scent but was so gutted when it gave me a headache 😩
The bottle looks beautifullll 💕 you look beautiful too Demi! Just wondering which is a lot fresher, this or MFK 724? 🤔 Cause it just gave me that 724 vibe
It lasts a long time. I bought this for my girlfriend but sprayed it on myself to test it. It lasted through a tough sweary workout and a shower. The next day I could still smell it on my arm.
Hey Demi ❤ Excited to hear your thoughts on third one 👌🏽❤
Hi Demi, I’ve heard rumors that PDM and Initio are your partner’s family business, is that true? If so, did you get a chance of peeking at the processes used to conceive a fragrance? Maybe you could film a video about it? Thanks! ❤
Hi love! Pierre has no involvement in PDM himself but we’ve definitely learned a lot about the process of creating a fragrance from our time in the industry! I think we’ll make a documentary on Sniff regarding the creation process 😌❤️
Not her partner's but his dad's. It's illegal to not disclose this info
I haven't seen any other reviews for this so to me you're the first! Thanks for the review! Now for the hunt to find a sample! :)
Love the blonder hair👱🏽♀️and the tan!
Amazing description, I have and love both Oriana and Delina La Rosée, can’t wait to get my hands on Valaya
This sounds like my kind of fragrance...I love fresh florals, esp this being a white floral as well. I will buy it most def.
Excited for this review!! ❤
Hair colour suits you so much!
Thank you Hayley 🥰😍
Sounds pretty, but I tend to like a complex fragrance. Didn't really like Oriana or the Rose PDM . Looking forward to trying this one!
you're so beautiful, especially your hair colour, it suits you!!
I got a sample it's better than described I was nervous it would be to sweet! It's so soft feminine and light musky such I sexy cozy scent
Your hair looks great. Very nice shade of blonde on you!
I love Parfum De Marly. For sure, I'll check it out. Thank you Demi!
Thank you for your review, I ´ve tried some of your recomendations and I seem to have similar taste to yours so i´m definetly try this one. Wish the best year for you
The look of the frosted bottle reminds me of Issey Miyake. I think I would love it. I hope it lasts on my skin. I cant ever use LB sadly it smells like nothing on me.
How exciting!!! Looking forward to trying it ❤
You had me at Quentin Bisch🤩
Can't wait to try it here in Europe middle of February .....
Demi! You have never looked prettier!😍😍
Looking as gorgeous as ever, Demi❣Does Valaya bear any similiarity to Dama Bianca? Sounds like it may, minus Valaya's marshmallow feel...
Would love to know this as well since i love dama Bianca but it does not last on me
Imo no! But both are beautiful 😍
Thanks for this video!
I have a request please!!!
After much experimentation I’ve concluded I will only be happy with spending my money on beast-mode performance fragrances. Could you please do a video of top beast performers

LOVING this hair colour on you
It sounds like musk therapy by initio with your description. Is that accurate?
Smelled this at my local Nordstrom, and I think it would smell incredible on women.
Yes Today Demi is looking super gorgeous
Thanks for the review. You are the first. I don't blind buy but I read Nordstrom will have it February 1st. So I will be at Nordstrom's on February 1st. I subscribe to 3 other fragrance channels but because of this review I wil subscribe to yours
Would love to hear your thoughts on Dior J’adore l’ Eau - the white bottle one 😊 Thank you for these reviews.
I seen reviews on that one and not all were good. Decided to spray it in the shop… was lovely, but the more I wore it the better it was getting ❤ so I would say try it out yourself
I hope and pray that the New Year will be good to you. May God bless and keep you.
Same to you Lechelle! 🥰❤️
Would love to smell all those perfumes behind you 💖 Might find my signature scent! Also when is your app ready?
Thank you for your timely review!! Two fragrances came to mind as you were describing it - I was about to ask how it compares to Oriana and then you mentioned it right at the end ☺️

Wow, this sounds absolutely devine. 💜💜
Could you make a video on what to wear in your late teens/early twenties??
i love the signature back ground music to your video's
would you recommend this or initio musk therapy? Thanks so much
If you already own Fleur Narcotique, you don’t need Valaya as it smells practically identical
Why do you mislead people, these two fragrances have NOTHING similar at all.
@@J.E.C. read comments on Fragrantica, I’m not the only one who says that
Very similar to ex nihilo fleur narcotique with more projection
Great review! I definitely have to try it!!
Thanks for another great video! Question: not that they smell alike, but do you like Valaya or Initio Musk Therapy for a clean-like, mushy, citrusy fragrance (regarding scent profile and performance)?

Haven’t tried a bad PDM. I assume this one won’t disappoint either.

Hi Demi. I recently purchased this scent for my wedding and i also bought Initio Musk Therapy. I was thinking of layering them on the day of my wedding. Any thoughts?
Love layering Valaya with Safanad
Yes, I think yours is the first review I'm seeing. Can't wait to try it.
I thought this smelled so harsh and cleaner like. I looooove Delina La rosée but could not wait to wash Valaya off.
Love you Demi! Is this fragrance already out?
Thank you so much for this review.
Sounds pretty🌺I love a good floral.
Can you do a video for each category of perfume..including different price range perfumes..from budget friendly to niche $. ..
🎀 10 fragrances..per category

Happy new year to you too!
Happy New Year Demi!!! 🥰💖
Happy New Year Demi!🤩
What do you do for business to be living in Dubai and then every other week in places like Cannes, Milan, Zurich, Paris, etc. I’m so curious!
