Bujairami Date Night

Bujairami Date Night opens with a rush of crisp sweet apple, clean lavender and citrus brightness before a violet and jasmine heart smooths it into a warm, spicy cardamom vanilla drydown, an extrait interpretation of the Parfums de Marly Layton style and one of the most direct compliment magnets in the Bujairami range.

Orientica Royal Bleu

Royal Bleu is Orientica's most direct interpretation of the fruity spiced blue genre that Parfums de Marly Layton built its reputation on, opening with green apple and mandarin before moving into a cardamom and violet heart and settling into vanilla, sandalwood and guaiac wood.
