Layton – Parfums de Marly

Launched in 2016 by perfumer Hamid Merati‑Kashani; it is an icon of the house, belonging to the woody spicy floral amber family and is unisex.📌 Olfactory notes Top: Juicy apple, bergamot, cardamom, and a touch of mandarin — a fresh, fruity opening with a very elegant spicy nuance. Heart: Lavender, geranium, violet, and jasmine — refined floral, aromatic, and with its own character. Base: Vanilla, praline, guaiac wood, patchouli, and sandalwood — creamy, woody, and addictive warmth without being cloying. 🧾 Profile and performance Character: Sophisticated, versatile, and with a perfect balance between fruity‑floral freshness and woody‑vanillic warmth. Longevity and sillage: 9–12+ hours on skin; powerful projection at the start and a very persistent trail on fabrics. Ideal for: Autumn, winter, and spring; formal events, dinners, dates, and also the office — it works day and night. Note: There is also Layton Exclusif, a more intense version with oud, leather, and sandalwood, designed for more special moments.
