About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Layton (2016) from Parfums de Marly opens with a crisp, fruity-spicy blend of apple and lavender. The top notes are straightforward, but the heart reveals a floral trio of geranium, violet, and jasmine that adds a refined, slightly powdery character. As it dries down, the base is where Layton truly shines: a warm, complex mix of vanilla, cardamom, sandalwood, pepper, guaiac wood, patchouli, Ambermax™, and coumarin. This creates a rich, spicy-woody foundation with a noticeable vanilla sweetness. The main accords—warm spicy (100%), fresh spicy (90%), woody (88%), vanilla (86%), aromatic (82%), and fruity (74%)—perfectly capture its balanced profile. Layton is unisex but leans slightly masculine due to its spicy depth. It suits collectors who appreciate a modern oriental floral with substantial projection and longevity. Ideal for evening wear or cooler months, it’s a versatile signature scent that bridges fresh and warm territories. Perfumer Hamid Merati crafted a composition that feels both classic and contemporary, making it a worthy addition to any collection.

中文簡介

Layton(2016)以蘋果與薰衣草的清新果香揭開序幕,隨後轉入天竺葵、紫羅蘭與茉莉的花香核心,細緻而略帶粉感。基調則由香草、小荳蔻、檀香、胡椒、癒創木、廣藿香、Ambermax™ 與香豆素交織而成,溫暖辛辣的木質底蘊中透出香草的甜潤。整體香調結構平衡,暖辣(100%)、清新辛辣(90%)、木質(88%)、香草(86%)、芳香(82%)與果香(74%)層次分明。Layton 雖為中性香,但辛辣深度稍偏陽剛,適合追求現代東方花香調的收藏家。持香與擴散力出色,尤其適合晚間或涼爽季節使用,是一款能橫跨清新與溫暖領域的標誌性香水。調香師 Hamid Merati 打造出既經典又當代的氣息,值得納入珍藏。
