    Not for a faint hearted nor an easy one to like/love for sure.
    But in the mild to cold weather this is an absolute winner.
    When you walk into the warm room from the cold of the outdoors, it becomes a fresh metallic breeze around you: makes you feel almost like an incapsulated (in a tin box) fresh-boozy-candy-apple… worth a try at least.

    Deliria is a nice mild weather scent suitable for spring and cool summer evenings. I had hard time testing it as this scent feels quite weird and nauseating. Not a safe scent for blind buy by any means you must try it by yourself.
    It opens in your face, synthetic to the maximum but smooth. Personally I’m not a fan of cotton candy and the combination with very strong metallic notes made it challenging every time I was trying to smell it on my hand. After that I get a strong alcoholic boozy note, rum. It feels very boozy and harsh. Then comes the toffee and a strong candied apple, slightly sour. The scent feels sweet and boozy.
    Well, I can’t breath with this thing. It feels like a drank scientist spilled chemical liquids on a rusted metallic plate in a laboratory and after that he vomit a cake he ate earlier over the liquids and the rusted metals. Absolutely nauseating for my nose and strong stuff.
    If there wasn’t the metallic note, Deliria could be a nice feminine scent. The metallic notes make it feel unisex. It smells a little better in the air. Do not sniff on the spot, it’s not good.
    The sillage is moderate, the projection is heavy but calms into a moderate after about 30 minutes. Unfortunately for me the longevity is above the average.
    If you like the Mad Max movie and candies give it a try lol! A female friend of mine says that it smells like ice cream.. different noses I guess..

    Among the Explosions d’Emotions collection, Deliria was the only one I had not tried yet. Reviews on Deliria here were great so I was so happy to find a bottle despite l’Artisan is not more selling it. Now I am wearing it and I find it a perfect fragrance, very balanced, feminine and sophisticated. Compared to Amour Nocturne ( which is great and intense but has woody notes ) or Skin on Skin (also great but with leather notes) Deliria is the only one without disturbing (for me) final notes. Deliria to me is all ( from beginning to end) pleasant. The metallic notes don’t recall iron or blood like someone says here, but they simply serve to make the fragrance fresh and to prevent sweet notes from becoming cloying or common. I think it is a sophisticated fragrance because it does not heat . Most of the fragrances on my skin become boiling, so I love structured scents that allow me to enjoy sweet or fruity or gourmand notes but at the same time to feel that I am wearing a sophisticated fragrance. Honestly it doesn’t last on my skin much and i need to put it again and again during the day. The first time i have worn it the scent of cherries was very clear and limpid at the start as well as the metallic notes, and it was a great olfactory experience. I love it.

    Oh my, she’s a beauty! Can’t understand how can this beautiful creation associate anyone with a smell of blood, though. I grew up on the streets, and have been around fights daily, and i can tell you, if humans had blood that smelled like Deliria, we would all be vampires.
    What she reminds me of is the steel fence we used to balance on, while competing who will put most bubblegum pieces in their mouths at once. I still remember the smell of my hands, after holding onto the fence while sitting on it and trying not to fall 8 feet down, onto bare concrete; talking, laughing, screaming at other kids, while chewing a huge piece of the bubblegum. That’s what Deliria smells like 🙂
    As for the name, i dig it, but i don’t think it’s necessarily matching the perfume. I watched my alcoholic father go thru two deliriums, and it wasn’t pretty, yet, this is a very pretty and unusual perfume.
    Probably not for everyone, but i am a Leo, and i like to smell different than everybody else. Once again, L’Artisan manages to amaze me! 🙂

    After reading the reviews for this fragrance, I felt like it was my mission to try it. It was the “coldness” everyone was talking about that really intrigued me. I bought a small sample online. The very first time I sprayed it, I couldn’t stand it. The smell was so overpowering and strange that it made me feel sick. However, I kept trying it and once I got to know it, I fell completely in love! I can’t stop smelling myself. So I bought a full 4.2 oz bottle. For me, the metallic scent dominates, but it’s not cold at all. It really is like heated metal, with sticky sweet candy in the background. I don’t get pineapple no matter how hard I try to detect it, as other reviewers have. I do get bubblegum and toffee, but they aren’t overwhelmingly sweet, so they blend nicely with the metallic note. It’s exhilarating yet comforting and fades to a warm, clean skin scent. It feels like a part of me.

    I forgot I even owned a decant of this one and decided to wear it the other day when I found it in the bottom of my beach bag. Really addictive and unusual take on a candy-scented gourmand. The metallic notes breathe fresh cool air into thin layers of crystaline sugar and warm rum. The character of the fragrance is shocking pink but electrified and lit from within like neon tube lights. It’s very synthetic-smelling but reminds me that sometimes boldly synthetic smells can be attractive and soothing like certain laundry detergents or shampoos. It definitely feels like it was spawned from the same train of thought that BD began with Amour Nocturne and Skin on Skin. All 3 (my faves from this collection) have tiny overlap with each other and all 3 are unapologetically synthetic-smelling to great effect. This one has the same alcoholic warmth and sweetness (like Sake) that works so well with the saffron and suede of Skin on Skin. My only gripe is how wrong L’Artisan got the presentation with the “Explosions” series (too fussy and too many scents). The only reason these are in bargain bins now is they missed the opportunity to launch the best ones, one at a time, unique from one another with a highlight on what they smell like instead of how they tie into some artsy theme like Explosions d’Emotions.

    I love it when reading what people think of a scent makes you realize most of them share something with your own experience and this is again the case with Deliria (which by they way was sold as Sautes d’humeur at one point so I couldn’t trace it till recently).
    I agree Deliria is a bit weird like a gourmand that fights to be other things as well and ends up getting through random paths. I like it a lot, it is very Etat libre d’orange style (think of Encens et bubblegum and just a tiny drop of Sécretions magnifiques) with a metallic something that creates a very dangerous concoction. Risky because on the first uses you may think it is a fruity bubblegum delight, very sexy and distinctive but then you realize there is a b side that is indeed a bit off, as in rancid or oxidised but yet modern and in my case it made me worry and wound up giving it to a friend. You know when you have had the chewing gum for ages on the mouth and it tastes both as it used to and ready to be in the bin?
    However, you won’t believe how gorgeous it smells on her… fancy, elegant, naughty and truly unique. Surprisingly very citric too. It never tires me when we go to the cinema or else and the metallic part gets a different vibe on her, it smells truly outstanding, what I’ve expected to find in Encens et bubblegum and have never been able to. Deliria is a safe choice if you get such a wonderful and rounded experience with it but you should try it many times and see if you don’t dislike the edgy part. All in all a scent to sample for sure.

    I just sampled this today having absolutely no clue what the notes were. I kept sensing something familiar, delicious, but couldn’t put my finger on it…it reminded me Serge Lutens’s Jeux de Peau (they are similar in vibe, not composition). I felt this would have a molecule that conjures the experience of sweet comforting oatmeal…And now I see where that idea was coming from: fluffy toffee…I never sensed the metallic note in its rather short lived sillage (4 h)…

    Wow. Just wow.
    I blind bought about 100ml of this left in a 125ml bottle, having read the notes and reviews here and boy, what a strange baby this is.
    It starts with a pineapple for sure – maybe toffee+apple+rum equals pineapple? Whatever it is, it’s a slightly carmelised, slightly boozy pineapple to my nose.
    Then metallic notes appear. Yes, metallic, which leads to obvious associations with blood (fresh blood) and for me also conveys a strong marine note – a harbour marine, not a ‘postcard beach marine’. I like it, but it’s pretty strong. Not Secerctions Magnifique strong, but strong nevertheless.
    As the time progresses, this gets cooler, cold even, and weaker, while a smoky thread emerges.
    Disturbing. Not everyday. Lovely. But not everyday.

    OK, so… I read the reviews and bought it blind anyway. It’s discontinued but I managed to find a new bottle and bought from a private seller on eBay (who had probably scored it at a ridiculously low price at TKMaxx, but – what can you do?).
    Deliria is very very strange. Not for nothing are there no comparisons in the “this reminds me of” box.
    Oddly, the metallic note only appears when I first spray it. It does not smell like blood to me – more like the “taste” of cold steel. There is also a sweet pineapple note – and I have a glass of fresh pineapple juice next to me, so can compare the two; pineapple juice also has a slightly metallic twang.
    After five minutes or so, the metallic twang eases and leaves an ozonic or aquatic freshness behind – it reminds me a little of the smell of a hot printer. That makes it sound awful, but it’s not; I work in a school library and the printer is immediately adjacent to where I sit. It gets a lot of use by students and I am not fond of that smell at all. Deliria just has a hint of that ozone.
    On the drydown, the cold note remains, which stops the fragrance being cloyingly sweet. I have a feeling this will be refreshing during the muggy summers we have in the SE of England.
    Not sure about sillage or longevity yet, as I only sprayed this about an hour ago. It is just so very strange, I needed to write down my thoughts immediately.
    ETA. I have been wearing this for several hours now, and – I love it. It has somehow bonded with my skin, so it no longer smells like perfume, but as my skin SHOULD smell. I have never experienced this with a fragrance before. Bertrand Duchaufour is a genius.

    True cotton candy note–no bitterness or sour notes like in the popular cotton candy perfume–and candied apple, for sure. My search for a bubblegum perfume is also over, now that I have found the lovely Deliria. The metallic note is not very prominent to me, it’s more of an undercurrent that makes this perfume not too cloying. In fact it smells like heated metal to me (rather than a blood metallic like other reviewers have smelled), like the smell of a roller coaster after it’s been running all day, which kind of dirties up the sweetness of the candy just enough. The dry down is less sweet, and it’s hard to say exactly what the dry down smells like as the metal, cotton candy and bubblegum is gone by then, but there is still a sweetness. Maybe toffee and apple, but really it becomes a “my skin but better” kind of smell. I love the way Deliria seems to melt into my skin and smell like an extension of me.

    I have this one and love it in all it’s weirdness! I usually dislike guermandes or sweet scents of any kind. But this one, so complex! It keeps remining me of suckling razzberry apple drops in my town Oslo in the summer when the rain makes the pavement smell! Your favorite memories kissing in the rain as a kid! In all honesty this is not thr pne I wear the most I have to be in that “moment” and state of mind. But I would not be without it in my wardrobe, its like nothing else. Its weird I can se how some might dislike it, a bold move.

    This perfume is very unusual and ingenious. You will be immediately returned to happy memories .
    It must match the acidity of your skin .
    What you smell : fair apples, carousels , sun, sun , a snack candy , lipstick , first flirt .
    Perfect!

    OMG This scent is out of this world! I’ve never smelled any perfume that smells or resembles anything like this. Many reviews are right at describing Deliria: frosty, metallic, super sweet, cotton candyish(a lot IMO), bubblegummy(watermelon/cottoncandy flavoured)… I would also add: boozy and dizzy! But what’s with the dislikes? This is perfection! There’s no scent like this, I swear. I bet this kinda scent will be more “mainstream” in say 10-20 years. Very futuristic scent.
    The box is so beautiful and cool. It looks like some monster with long claws tried to open the box and left it’s mark on the side. Somehow because of the style of this scent I would imagine the fluid to be neon green or neon purple…
    It is really amazing how this not only works as an amazing perfume that is sensual and intoxicating – so delirious, Deliriating, but it also reminds you of a place. Just like Dzing reminds me of circus. Place that comes to mind for me from Deliria is an amusement park or a fairground. Also this brings an image of drugs. And I’ve never used cocaine or LSD, extasy or stuff like that but I’d imagine them to be smelling like Deliria. Because when I smell this scent, especially in the beginning it really is a rollercoaster ride and a “dizzying cloud” just like it says in the official description of the scent.
    A Masterpiece 10+!
    Most unique scent I’ve ever smelled.
    Sillage is very close to skin but has an amazing longevity almost 10 hours on my skin. So the scent is pretty strong when you smell it by sniffing your arm where you’ve sprayed it but the scent won’t spread and fill the room no matter how much you spray it on yourself.

    Non riesco ad annusarlo… percepisco dolci mele caramellate ed una nota metallica fredda, gelata, che mi ricorda l’odore del ferro delle vecchie giostre arrugginite.
    Questa nota m’inquieta.
    Per me è NO.

    Oooh! Woow! This perfume really surprised me … it is an unexpected but brilliant fusion of metallic notes and cotton candy and candied apple. I really like the rum that is present in the distance..there,enveloping scent tossing toward a vortex of “crazy”of fun,roller coasters,and fun. This scent is a very well done, do not agree on how the reviews say, this is not bad. I mean that is very well balanced, unusual “strange” but that can give you joy and take you back to your childhood, according me suitable for the cold months, especially winter,during of Christmas. This can not go unnoticed… may sound weird me this is its real strength. It’a unique parfum and complex, but at the same time beautiful. I think it does for me, I really like!!! The sillage is soft,and longevity is good. Great work B.Duchaufour.
    Sillage: 6/10
    Longevity: 8/10

    Love at first sniff! It must be all in the skin chemistry for this fragrance since it’s either love or hate. It’s just beautiful on me. A complete trip to a carnival midway. I get the cotton candy, candy apples, the metallic scent of the carnival rides and a little rum in a carnie’s flask. This perfume triggers so many scent memories of happy times. I love it.
    * Oh , for those who think this smells like blood, it doesn’t. I work in surgery, I smell blood all the time and this isn’t blood. There is a distinct difference between metallic notes and the scent of blood.

    It smells like you’re walking through a carnival at night holding a caramel apple in one hand and cotton candy in the other. The metallic note keeps this one unique. Maybe you’re heading to see a freak show at this carnival. I love this. Too bad it’s discontinued.

    It’s the 80’s. You’re in a mostly abandoned 24-hour laundromat in some big city. The half-drunk Madonna-wannabe with the curve hugging, off the shoulder, neon pink and black dress, the teased-to-heaven bangs and fingerless lace gloves is smacking her strawberry cotton candy flavored Bubble-Yum gum as loud as she can as she regales her best friend Sandy all the gossip of the day.
    That’s what this perfume smells like to me. Aqua Net hairspray, Bubble-Yum, drunk girls, laundry detergent powder and the rusty metallic hum of thirty washers and dryers all rolling at once. And maybe a bit of spilled and dried Coca-Cola in there too. (Or… for the Peruvians out there, that Inca Cola that spilled, dried, and got sticky on the floor: THIS IS THE PERFUME VERSION OF THAT.)
    So… Yeah… Deliria is a good name for this because I feel deliriously confused just smelling it. I don’t think I could ever wear this anywhere. Maybe a laundromat… This feels more like an art project to me. If they had art galleries for perfumes, I feel like this one woud resonate with more than a few people and evoke some weird memories. But I really don’t see it as a daily use perfume.
    Like, when you see really weird looking outfits go down the runway at fashion shows and laugh ‘Who wold wear that??’ Well, there are some extremely rich ladies who make a personal statement thing out of wearing ridiclously expensive “art pieces in clothing form” (to put it politely) and I feel like those are the ones who might wear this.
    It’s not sexy and it’s not trying to be. It’s just evoking a lot of images and making your mind (or mine at least) go places. Maybe that’s why it’s called Deliria and maybe that’s the point? They always say art’s open to interpretation, right?

    What a peculiar fragrance. There is something both fascinating and repulsive about this… it does remind me of Secretions Magnifiques in that respect. There is a sharp metallic note that definitely brings to mind blood or a surgical operation like s.m does for me. Kind of like what I imagine the inside of a human body to smell like…slightly aquatic in a way too. I like the murder at the fairground explanation…if anyone has read Stephen King’s Joyland…this would be a great fragrance to go alongside. I don’t get the rum or apple necessarily. There is a fruity vibe in the opening but nothing too distinguishable. The main note I get from this fragrance, other than the strange ironic rusty blood smell is bubblegum, not candy floss. This fragrance has moderate silage and good lasting power, if a little subtle after a few hours. It is incredibly strange…even more so than Dzing but not as much as Scretions Magnifiques. It is fascinating and strange…like others had said, I can’t stop smelling it. Skin on skin and Amour Nocturne were both odd, juxtaposing fragrances too but this is the strangest of all. Not something I would wear in public but definitely a guilty pleasure. I’m glad I got it.

    Frosty, cotton-candy-flavored bubble gum. The pink, sugary scent of childhood is what rises to the top immediately. Although, this is a more complex sweetness, it doesn’t smell cheap as you might assume from the predominant cotton candy notes. It’s a cold sweetness, but I’m not necessarily getting *strong* metallics. There’s a hint of apple, but mostly it’s all sucrose for me. I can’t detect any of the other gourmand notes—no toffee, no rum. Just cold, pink candyfloss. Not for me, by any means, but I could see the right person totally rocking this.

    got this one in a discovery pack and keep coming back to it. the steel note is bizarre, alluring and keeps surprising me. layered with chanel 31 rue de cambon — took the tried and true and lifted it. alone, there is a slight sweaty note creeping in after 9 hrs or so. i can smell it a good 24 hrs later. truly odd, memorable, keeps me mentally alert and thinking

    What is this…On first sniff I instantly want to run back to my good friend Amour Nocturne and talk about the weirdo, Deliria.
    This fragrance is frozen. It’s so strange just how cold and metallic this comes across. It opens surprisingly normal with a strong naturalistic pineapple note, I guess the blend of apple and metal is pineapple.. who would have guessed. Then it becomes colder and colder until there’s metallic cotton candy-flavored frostbite on my arm. Often when fragrances have metallic notes it makes one think of blood, but this to me smells much more like the inside of an empty walk in freezer or something. Or maybe the scent of a brand new just-out-of-the-box fridge full of fruity desserts and stacks of nickels? I’m drawing a blank here…
    Sniffing this resets my nose in such a weird way. When I pull my arm away from my nose something lingers in my nostrils, the slightly chilly air of a place that I can’t identify. When I catch wiffs of this I like it, when I focus on it I am kind of revolted. Its so confounding that I want to keep smelling it… I almost want a bottle just to “cool off/torture” my nose.
    Just for clarification, I don’t mean that this smells cold in the same way that a fresh, minty, or transparent summer scent would, Deliria is cold in an absolutely bizzarre inhuman way. It’s like a tween-marketed fruity-summer body spray for some strange alien race.. I don’t know what Bertrand was smoking when he made this but I want a hit. It performs pretty well in the sillage and longevity department. This is a what..?/10

    I bought this from TK maxx for 30 quid, and was already aware of the notes and was therefore expecting a strong smell of metal, which I hoped would be tempered by the candy floss, toffee notes. It sounded really interesting as I am gowing tired of the usual generic perfumes that are being churned out.
    First spray was a “pineapple note”, which quickly disappeared and was followed by an intense smell of metal. Slowly the other notes appeared and sweetend up the fragrance, but that metal note was still prominent and I hated it.
    However my boyfriend (who was not aware of the notes) really liked it. He said it had a cold ozonic feel to it, and could definitely smell the rum and the sweet notes.
    He decided to keep it and to be honest it smells gorgeous on him, and sometimes I have a little spray as its quite addicitive.

    After being thoroughly disappointed by Amour Nocturne from this L’artisan line… (and most other L’artisan scents), I saw the notes of Deliria and was intrigued, but skeptical.
    The opening of Deliria is noteworthy, unique & feels like a fantasy. It’s the exact combination of cotton candy *flavored* bubblegum, with a hint of red apple. It’s a memory-lane type of fragrance for me, It goes right back a decade and a half to those multi-colored, weird ass lollipops the pediatric doctor would hand to you after a series of vaccinations. Fruity, sweet, but something *weird* and inedible lurking in the background. That ‘something weird’ reveals itself here as a lurking, metallic-paper note. Like if you took a bite out of an elementary school papier-maché art project as you were working on it. A creepy “inky” note is how I’d describe the feel of the background of Deliria, like the smell of freshly printed newspapers.
    The drydown is a disappointing non-descript pile of nothing. A dry fuzziness, a hint of ink, and musk. All of L’artisan’s drydowns (or should we call them Let-me-(dry)-downs) fall flat on my skin – so perhaps it’s just me.
    Deliria is not entirely unwearable, it certainly holds it’s own in being unlike other fragrances, especially as a novelty. I think the addition of more apple & cotton candy could’ve saved this for me. I do find it funny though, that from the opening to the drydown, I was taken from childhood innocence and sweets, straight through to boring-adulthood-gray-nothingness.

    Exactly what it says on the tin actually!
    Candyfloss, candy apple, hint of rum with those weird metal notes…
    Funnily enough it does remind me of a fairground, but not the happy childhood ones, it actually reminds me of a book: The Bad Seed by Joanne Harris. In it the evil is characterised often by the description of candyfloss and a ‘hot animal reek’ and things like a fairground. Of course, there is lots of spilled blood and even a real fairground in the book (all set in the beautiful city of Cambridge, where I once roamed.) The book seems to me to combine all the elements of this perfume, from the sweet candy notes to the metallic scent, reminding me almost of a bloody steel knife and the sinister underbelly of the fairground.
    Would I wear it to feel sexy? I think not. But for curiosity and to feel dangerous like the characters? Possibly. It’s a fun fantasy of a fragrance, definitely closer to art but for the price I’d be perhaps disappointed. Lovely packaging though!
    Also, the metal notes actually have a hint of coriander for me, is it just me getting this vibe?
    I just wish I could find this lovely like few lucky people and their magic skin seem to find it but I’m not convinced, sorry Bertrand!
    Nice longevity and sillage for a L’artisan though, and I must add that the packaging is excellent!
    Edit:
    Several months later as the weather is starting to cool I tried this and instead of hunting like a bloodhound for the metal notes and eyeing them suspiciously I focused on the ‘aquatic’ and/or ‘ozonic’ feel that others have mentioned and found it a lot more wearable.
    It was fresh, unusual, cold with a hint of gourmand sweet notes. I’d be interested to try this in spring as it’s not Christmasy really.
    I nabbed Amour Nocturne too and it is equally weird but seems to be better in the cold weather too. Now just to open Skin on Skin and find the love in that bottle too. I’m rather sure I will.

    Uhhhhh…yeah…no! What exactly is this?
    After I got past the incredibly offensive opening notes, which I imagine are the metallic & rum scents, all I could smell was something akin to a pistol that was removed from an old leather holster. Uggghhhhhh! Awful!!!
    Throw in the horse’s rear-end (a$$) and you’ll get the complete picture. WOW!!! Took me several tries to get past the incredibly offensive opening notes. Actually felt nauseated. Gun metal & leather on me. Straight off the horse’s sweaty butt.
    Cotton-candy? Candy apples? Toffee? Sweetness? Where? Got more offensive during its dry-down. Refrained from scrubbing but my-oh-my.
    Just not for me.

    I am usually attracted to strange “things”…. Or people….. Or places …. Well… Given that all the reviews that seem to be heading , one way or another, towards the label “weird “, I decided to blind buy this perfume, despite the price tag.
    First of all, the packaging is beautiful. Secondly, I own Amour Nocturne from the same series and I just love it ! Is that one strange? Absolutely! So how could this one be, after a number of reviewers called it ” grotesques” , ” weird”, “ville “, etc ?
    Well, to my sheer surprise I find it totally wearable … With springlike notes, fresh, sweet, youthful , in an unconventional way. The cotton candy is the dominating note according to my nose. It’s mixed with musc and some undefinable fruits, not necessarily Apple. The boozy note makes it more mature. The metallic notes aforementioned are not heading towards the stale blood scent as in Secretions Magnifiques at all…. Conversely, they are giving more of a cold feeling…. A cooling sensation that almost makes me think “mentholated “, even though there is no mint in the composition.
    The silage is very soft on my skin, lasting power average. The scent dries down to a skin scent that is vanillic clean , edible, without the initial sweetness .
    If it wasn’t for the unusual combination of rum with the other ingredients, I would call this a spring scent… But it does have a kinky , dirty little facet.
    Overall, I wish it was a bit stronger, since it’s an edp. But I love it just the way it is.
    So my conclusion here is that no matter how the reviewers are describing a scent , it should still be tested on your own skin before dismissing . You never know what gem you might discover .

    One of the finest perfumeries in the world. One of the best perfumers. Beautiful packaging & an interesting concoction of ingredients…. this should be a master piece but in my opinion this perfume would be intolerable to wear even as a functional mosquito repellent!
    Some perceive the metallic note as blood like but mixed with the soft cotton candy and the fresh apple note… to my nose, it smelled like a damp garment that had been exposed to intense heat and had become singed.
    I had the opportunity to test it in my local TK MAXX where it’s currently selling for just €39.00 & luckily for me a curious customer had removed the outer packaging. It was on my list of possible blind buys but that wont be happening now even if it’s reduced to €1. It’s absolutely vile! Sorry!

    I’m sorry but this is the only fragrance that makes me gag.
    The combination of apple + metal notes on cotton candy with rum is too much. I’m sure that for some it smells delicious, unfortunately for me Deliria makes my stomach turn.
    It is a VERY interesting fragrance, nevertheless.

    Sucking on Lovehearts during a thunderstorm. Sweet, cold smelling ozone. The metal note adds difference, the sweetness makes it beautiful.
    I am really loving this stuff, I can’t get enough of it. Industrial indeed….hubba bubba stuck on scaffolding.
    P.S Ninevah by Penhaligan’s is exactly the same juice

    A young guy in the mid 90’s. The night was very tough, poor spoiled, and even the next morning:. 3 discos, 5 pills, 500 kilometers. But today is Monday, time to put the tie, prepare the schoolbag and return to real world. The music that resounds in the arteries, sparks in the eyes, and the belief of being immortal.

    OK, folks, sniffing Deliria sample off my wrist was a seriously disturbing experience for me. I suppose it is the metal note, which smelled so distinctly like blood to me. And mixed with the apples! A hungry vampire? I tried to have an open mind. I waited. I reapplied. Same linear bloody apple.

    , purchased completely blind while shopping in TKMAX in Broadstairs Kent during the weekend for a WOW bargain of jst £29.99 instead of £ 135.00,(not sure if tkmaxx have any left but do look) got very fast onto the wifi to find out reviews and when I read the lovely notes brought it immediately even if in the end I wouldnt of liked it ..didn’t quite realise however once on my skin what a very odd,yet enchanting sweet and totally delicious concoction this would be,…I love to be different and not follow the norm so this is a bargain I wont stop wearing now,,,definatley fairground memories candy floss fun with the rum dizziness of the waltzers and midnight fruitiness of caramel toffee apples this to me is gorgeous warm sweet and yummy even more delighted that I got it if it has in fact been discontinued,,, do try it girls you may be very surprised how addictive it is xx

    As an experiment, this is interesting. As a perfume, though, I am not sure. I get the sweet, caramel apple. The metallic note seems more rubbery to me and it puts me off. I end up with a rubbery alcoholic whiff. Confusing, the lines are indeed blurred with this one. I suppose the real taste test would be spraying a good dose and seeing reactions from people…

    Sweet, freshly baked unpeeled apple and metal scrapes from beveling iron. Just it. No cotton candy, no caramel, no rum. Very so
