Our take
What does Valaya smell like?
Launched in 2023, Valaya expands Parfums de Marly’s feminine line with a luminous, silky fruity floral. The opening combines fizzy aldehydes, velvety white peach, bergamot and mandarin for a sparkling, elegant start. In the heart, orange blossom and lily of the valley bring a clean, white freshness, while a discreet vetiver adds a little structure. Musk, ambroxan and vanilla in the base leave a soft, luminous trace much like clean skin. Valaya evokes the lightness of pale fabric and the softness of freshly picked fruit, with modern elegance. The aldehydes lend it a quiet, almost vintage sparkle.
When to wear it
Ideal in spring and summer, for daytime or special occasions. It suits those who love luminous, refined florals.
