Eight of Delina's ten notes, and the one that matters most is the rhubarb — it is what separates the original from the Exclusif, which uses pear instead, and it is here. Owners are unusually consistent about this one. One calls it incredibly close, a little punchier on the top notes, with a dry down that is very, very similar. Another describes it as a cross between the original and the Exclusif: still the sharp rhubarb of the og, but creamier. A third simply says best dupe for Delina, thank me later. Read the flaw before buying, because the same people name it: it can run sharp, particularly in the opening, where Delina is rounder. It also drops the cedarwood and vetiver that give the original its dry finish, and adds lily-of-the-valley. Expect five to seven hours, and better than that on fabric — several owners spray it on clothing deliberately.
