What Valaya smells like
It opens bright, with bergamot, orange blossom and pink pepper. The heart turns to rose, tuberose and a little peach. Under that sits musk, vanilla and ambergris, which is what keeps it clean rather than heavy. Royal Bloom is built to the same shape, so the top is crisp and the dry-down stays soft and close to the skin.
What our own sales say
We make two Parfums de Marly scents, and people buy them side by side. In the last 90 days Altair, our take on Althair, sold 40 bottles. Royal Bloom sold 14. So the almond-vanilla Althair outsells the white-floral Valaya by nearly three to one in our shop, with both at £40 and the same 35%. Royal Bloom holds a 5.0 rating from its first 2 reviews. No rival can print that split, because no rival makes both bottles.
