Parfums De Marly Kalan
Parfums De Marly Kalan opens with a surprising punch of citrus from vibrant blood orange and a powerful kick of black pepper. It eventually settles with more warm and rounded notes of lavender, white sandalwood and moss.
Why We Love It:
The blood orange in this is what makes Parfums De Marly Kalan special. It is very fresh and juicy.
I am not a massive fan of the bottle – it feels a bit too ‘fast cars‘ and flashy lifestyle to me, and doesn’t really reflect the fragrance.
I have to say, it has a great performance though. It sits well on the skin and has a high silage, meaning people will be able to smell it from far away!
It certainly isn’t cheap, but if you like your powerful luxurious fragrances, this could become a signature scent for some of you.

What They Say
“The accord between lavender and orange blossom absolute is released, evoking the majesty of French formal gardens.”
Parfums de Marly, founded in 2009, draws its inspiration from the century which celebrated the pinnacle of French elegance: the 18th century, the reign of perfume.
