Parfums de Marly Layton
- Authentic original perfume
- Try before the full bottle
- Travel-ready 3ml, 10ml, 30ml
- Long-lasting scent
Layton by Parfums de Marly is a warm, spiced apple with a vanilla heart, crisp at first and cosy by evening. Apple, lavender, bergamot and mandarin make the opening bright and a little herbal. Geranium, violet and jasmine give the middle a soft, powdery floral side. Then cardamom, pepper and vanilla warm it up over sandalwood, guaiac wood and patchouli. It launched in 2016, and men reach for it most, especially those who like a polished scent with some heat underneath. Voters wear it through autumn and winter, by day or at night, and it comes into its own when you are going out. Most wearers vote it long-lasting. The sillage vote leans strong, so start light. Try a 3ml decant for a week of cold evenings before you commit to a bottle.
