Top 5 Delina Dupes and Alternatives
Delina from the Delina Collection by Parfums de Marly truly left an impressive mark on the perfume world when it took the world by storm in 2017. Even in 2024, it shows no signs of stopping, as perfume enthusiasts remain as enamoured with this lovely rose-lychee fragrance as ever.
But why is it so beloved? Well, let us start with the fact that it was created by master perfumer Quentin Bisch. That alone is reason enough, but if you need more convincing, here is what Delina actually smells like.

What does Delina smells like?
Delina opens with a refreshing burst of bergamot, paired up with a tangy rhubarb note and its signature lychee with just the right amount of nutmeg. At its heart, Delina delights with a wonderful floral symphony of velvety Turkish rose and peony that are craftily blended with sensual musk and sweet vanilla notes. As Delina dries down and warms on the skin, a more woody accord comes through thanks to the musk, cashmeran, incense and vetiver notes – all creating a comforting yet still seductive fragrance that will keep you coming back for more.
Delina is opulent, girly and an all-around feel-good perfume. It is no wonder that it is a hit and that other perfume houses have tried to create either dupes or fragrances of a similar DNA. If you are in the market for something that smells like Delina because the real thing is just a tad too pricey, then fret not. We got you.

Alt.Fragrances is a fragrance brand that specialises in creating good quality dupes that also happen to be vegan, cruelty-free and made using 100% clean ingredients. Their products are made in the USA and needless to say, the brand is making quite a splash by, essentially, copying niche and popular fragrances and selling them for a fraction of the cost.
For Delina lovers, Alt.Fragrances created Duchess, a fragrance that faithfully copies Delina’s notes from top to base. It retails at €66 for a 100ml. If you want a smaller bottle, they also sell a 60ml bottle for €56 and a 30ml bottle for €46. Reviews of this fragrance are overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the longevity of perfume as well as how good of a dupe it is for our beloved Delina. So, if you want a sustainable and vegan version of Delina, the Duchess might just be the right dupe for you.
Bloom by The Woods Collection
The Woods Collection is a French brand that was founded in 2015. It prides itself for linking traditional and modern perfumery techniques and for cultivating a lot of its ingredients on a patch of land that it owns in Siena, Italy.
Delina lovers cannot get enough of this brand’s Delina-like creation called Bloom. The notes alone look very close to the notes profile of Delina except for the inclusion of a Lily-of-the-Valley note. According to those who have excitedly already tried Bloom, three things are very notable: it seems to smell stronger than Delina, the drydown is muskier and the opening is more floral than the very citrusy opening of Delina. Apart from that, Bloom seems to pass the Delina test and delights even more because of its incredible lasting power and projection. Price-wise, Bloom is a bit more expensive than the two others already featured in this list. It currently retails at around €177 probably because it is made by a niche fragrance house that places a lot of value in regionally-sourced and high-quality ingredients.
Arte Bellisimo Romantic by Orientica Premium
This list inevitably includes two Arab perfumes brands because it is undeniable that Arab perfume houses are amongst the quickest to develop inexpensive, good quality and long-lasting dupes that we can enjoy as if we had the real thing!
Without further ado, the first Arab perfume that managed to impress Delina lovers all over the world is Orientica Premium. Their creation Arte Bellisimo has got that strong Delina DNA with a few new interesting notes such as grapefruit, peach blossom, violet, vetiver, benzoin and amber. You may have noticed that unlike Delina, Arte has no vanilla note but some fans of it still detect a sweet vanilla note that is, for some people, even better than the real Delina.
Arte Bellisimo is described as a creamier, fruitier and fresher version of Delina for a fraction of the price. A 100ml bottle currently retails at around €60. This dupe is perfect for you if you are not a fan of Delina’s strong rhubarb note or its overall tart-ness. Just like Delina, Arte Bellisimo is surprisingly long-lasting and projects amazingly well.
Altea Profumo (Marshmallow Perfume) by L’Erbolario
L’Erbolario is an Italian cosmetics brand founded by Franco Bergamaschi and Daniela Villa. Together they create recipes for beauty treatments and, of course, other beauty products just like perfumes and perfumed bath products.
Their 2022 creation, Altea Profumo (Marshmallow Perfume) is a fruity-floral fragrance that has made quite the impression on Delina lovers because it is a very close dupe. Delina fans agree that Altea Profumo is less tart and sweeter than Delina, making it a perfect alternative for those who like the Delina DNA but find the original too strong.
So, how does Marshmallow Perfume smell? It opens with a sweet and zesty sweet orange and lemon blossom combination that beautifully leads into the heart notes made of white rose and althaea. The drydown is a simple yet velvety blend of musk and vanilla that lasts a good 4 – 6 hours. Altea Profumo retails at €26,90 for a 50ml bottle and at €14,90 for a 15ml bottle. This is a perfect and inexpensive dupe for you if you like your Delina-dupe to be less sour and made from ingredients that are carefully tested for any and all impurities.
Delilah by Maison Alhambra
Ask any Delina lover at this moment and they will include Delilah by Maison Alhambra as one of their most favoured Delina dupes. The notes are incredibly similar and even the bottles of both perfumes are of the same colour. Delilah opens with a refreshing burst of rhubarb, lychee and bergamot followed by a beautiful floral heart made of Turkish Rose, peony and lily. Together they prepare you for a simple yet sweetly soft base, thanks to a vanilla, cashmeran and white musk blend that remains interesting and enticing for hours on end.
Delina lovers note that despite Delilah smelling almost 100% the same as Delina, it is a bit creamier and a tad spicier than the original. So, please keep this in mind. One piece of advice that also comes up when researching Delilah as a Delina dupe is the need to macerate it for a bit in order to get the best results. For €35, Delilah is a great steal that projects well and is guaranteed to you a compliment or two.
That concludes our Delina dupes and alternatives list! We hope that you enjoyed reading about our suggestions as much as we enjoyed researching them. Let us know which ones of these you already own or which ones you are planning to buy in the near future. We would love to hear your verdict on these Delina dupes!

You forgot another good dupe: Afnan Fatima. It’s actually better than Delina. Long lasting with strong sillage.
The Noted Aromas dupe “Marrakesh” is fantastic. Didn’t notice any difference from the original and stayed on my skin for nearly 24 hours!
