VALAYA - PURELY SENSUAL

A radiant aura and yet, an impalpable softness. Valaya, the new opus unveiled by Parfums de Marly, has accomplished the challenge of capturing the scent of the skin caressed by a veil of cotton to convey the power of femininity.

Beyond the boundaries of artifice and ostentation, and beyond time, Valaya rouses an intimate sensation, a universal emotion, a deep breath of mindfulness. Its short formula suggests the texture of skin, the smell of fresh cotton, and the radiance of a woman in full bloom.

SAVOIR-FAIRE

Valaya is the result of a close collaboration between Julien Sprecher and the French perfumer Quentin Bisch.

This musky woody floral brings a synergy of natural materials and innovative molecules.

INSPIRATION

Valaya rouses an intimate sensation, a universal emotion, a deep breath of fresh air.

The sensation of the petticoat ladies wore under their various garment during the 18th century, or the modernity of a white shirt worn directly against the skin.

A fragrance that revisits 18th century heritage with elegance and modernity.

MANDARIN

In the top note, mandarin is the comforting note par excellence.

Harvested in Italy, it is captured in its entirety thanks to an exclusive extraction process for the fruit’s peel and pulp, which also contains scent components, and thanks to the recuperation of its juice, which is usually discarded.

The result is a fresh, juicy facet that’s natural both in its production and in its olfactory rendering.

AMBROFIX

The sensual base of the formula.

A 100% natural molecule obtained from sugarcane using a unique bioconversion process.

Upon contact with the skin, warm facets of amber, for which it is the biodegradable alternative.
