Animalic perfumery often challenges conventional notions of beauty, but few fragrance houses embrace raw, bodily intimacy quite like Marlou. It’s their specialty to turn animality into an irrefutable luxury, as demonstrated by Doliphor, a perfume with polite, earthy, tenderly milky, and softly powdery facets.
In general, Doliphor smells like everything clean, innocent, airy, and heavenly! It smells like a baby’s neck! And it conjures the impression of the very softness of a baby’s skin.
The perfume gently opens with a pampering sheen of milky, wheaty musk, nicely mingled with the earthy nuances of carrot seed. However, unlike many perfumes in which carrot seed lies on damp, sharply iris-like woodiness, here the note is just a touch of a soft brush to add a hue to the whiteness of the other elements. There’s also a bold pulse of musk beneath the wheat and milk, just beside a murmuring aftertaste of costus.
Undeniably, this scent dives deep into the realm of human skin, powdery warmth, and musky magnetism. This interplay between soft musky notes and its confronting side brings it to a stage where it’s impossible to tag the perfume with a certain name. Classic? Not at all, in the same way we hesitate to call it modern. However, what can be firmly admitted is that the perfume is a second-skin, daily-wearable, minimalist, individualist, and absolutely harmless cocoon of scent from heaven.
