Launched in 2009, Parfums de Marly is an haute parfumerie brand devoted to reviving the splendor of King Louis XV, who was renowned for his love of extravagant scents. Parfums de Marly celebrates the spirit of lavish festivities held in the Château de Marly for the delight of members of the Royal Court and foreign dignitaries, while its distinctive packaging honors the king's love of horses.
I’m in love with the scent! For context, I was looking for a replacement for Chantecaille’s Darby Rose fragrance, which is no longer available. I love the smell of roses, but it often doesn’t translate well in a perfume.
My main criteria for my new perfume was to have a clean rose scent and be made by a cruelty-free brand. After an exhaustive search, I found Parfums de Marly’s Meliora. It is simply divine! I love the undertones of raspberries. I spray it on my wrists and dab it on my neck and find the scent remains constant all day. I have found my new signature scent!

Watch out !
I order and bought this product on Nordstrom online as a Valentine gift to my wife, Item #7621410. Product was pick up by Fedex on the 02/12/2024 at Gaithersburg, MD and delivered on the 02/14/2024 at my apartment at 2:48 pm. When I got home at 7pm, my girl friend gave me a well rapped weightless Fedex package. When I open the package, the was a rapped brown paper, with not fragrance and a return label in the Nordstrom package. I called Nordstrom that same day and reported the incident and I told
and promise that, am investigation was to be open. I FOLLOWED up after two days , I got promise to get a response in my email and after another three days, I called and followed up and am email was send to me , rejecting my claim, stating that , they product was send and delivered successfully. Afternoon numerous attend to call and follow up, Nordstrom basically rejected me.
Please Please Please Please !!!! this is any person around the Maryland area, wishing to purchase anything with Nordstrom, please what out for this and take a video when opening your package because you will fall victim to this Nordstrom. I had pictures and video of the empty package and will open a police case and suit Nordstrom for this act......... Watch out Watch out Watch out Watch out , I will never buy from Nordstrom and I will spread this message to all platform and review, so that , nobody falls victims to this thief.

Weak scent and doesn’t last long
The smell is great but it barely lasts before I get out of my house right after I’ve sprayed it on. I tried it on in the store and it was much stronger and lasted much longer. I’ve only had it a couple of weeks and I’ve already used a fourth of the bottle because I just keep spraying it to try and get the smell to stay. Disappointing for the price.

Save your money!
Although this smells amazing it lasted no more than an hour or two once sprayed on, at this price point it should for sure last longer than that! I was told it was a long lasting fragrance and that turned out to be false. Highly disappointed so I returned it, hopefully I’ll receive my refund soon!

Love the scent but it doesnt last long
I love the scent but find myself having to reapply it throughout the day. For the cost, would like it to last a good 8 hours .

Smells amazing but does not last
I absolutely loved the smell of this perfume but it does not last on me at all. I had to respray within an hour or two. Not worth it

Fragrance Fades Quicky
After a few hours, I basically can’t smell anything nor do I get compliments (which I am used to with my other fragrances). Returning this tomorrow.

Beautifully Elegant
I feel so feminine when I wear this! Meliora is the perfect sweet floral that's nice and light. For those who say they can't smell it, then you're not putting on enough...you need to spray more than just a few pulse points. I spray this in the morning, and I can smell it well into the afternoon. I consider myself picky and thrifty when it comes to perfumes, and I love this one and is well worth the splurge. While everyone loves Delina - I like that opening, but don't like the dry down...Meliora stays the same from beginning to end.

Fruity Tea Scent
Meliora smells like fruity berries with a soft tea note. It’s light, fresh, and feminine—very soft and not overpowering. It sits close to the skin, giving off a soft, elegant vibe. The downside is it doesn’t last long or project well, especially compared to Valaya. Still, I like it enough to reapply.

lasting power
Beautiful and unique scent but like all the other reviewers had said. It does not last, not like valaya and delina. Not worth paying $400.

Deep and complex, love this scent!
I love this scent, and when people browse my perfumes, it's the most often chosen to borrow. Smells nice on everyone, stays true to notes listed in description.
