Elegant Oriental Floral Warmth: Parfums de Marly Layton Eau de Parfum
Radiate chivalrous charm and addictive sophistication with a sparkling fusion of crisp apple freshness, aromatic lavender calm, and creamy vanilla-woody depth laced with spicy cardamom, embodying regal allure in Parfums de Marly Layton Eau de Parfum, launched in 2016 by perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani (unisex oriental floral, charismatic and versatile appeal)—expertly crafted to blend luminous top notes of apple-bergamot-cardamom with a refined lavender-violet-geranium heart and rich vanilla-patchouli-guaiac wood base. Widely regarded as a PdM icon and modern classic with prominent apple juiciness, lavender aromatic elegance, and vanilla creaminess, it's celebrated for its balanced warmth, fruity-spicy opening contrasted by powdery smoothness, addictive sweet trail, and stellar performance in a refined, crowd-pleasing composition.
This captivating elixir opens with a bright, juicy surge of apple, bergamot, and cardamom for crisp, spicy-citrus lift that's fresh and inviting, then unfolds into a heart of lavender, violet, and geranium for powdery, floral-aromatic layers that feel elegant and harmonious, finally anchoring in a base of vanilla, patchouli, guaiac wood, praline, and sandalwood for creamy, woody-sweet richness with lingering sensual comfort. It's fruity-crisp yet spicy-warm, fresh yet creamy, vibrant yet grounded—like apple-bergamot zest sparked by cardamom over lavender-violet petals with geranium green, rooted in vanilla-praline patchouli guaiac that lingers as a confident, chivalrous aura of timeless luxury.
It bursts with apple and bergamot—juicy, crisp, and strikingly fresh with citrusy sweetness. The heart reveals lavender and violet alongside geranium, crafting a powdery-aromatic core that's refined, balanced, and enchanting. It dries down to a luxurious vanilla-praline embrace—creamy, woody, and warmly sweet—forming an enduring, magnetic trail that's unisex, addictive, and irresistibly sophisticated.

Frequently hailed as a signature in the Parfums de Marly collection—apple-vanilla dominant juicy-sweet core, lavender powdery heart, cardamom-spicy opening iconic, with a strikingly charismatic yet wearable vibe—Layton is described as uniting a vibrant apple-citrus blast, refined lavender-floral heart, and creamy vanilla-woody drydown (often praised as a "modern apple-vanilla gem," fresh yet indulgent, with spicy lift and grounded luxury). It’s a versatile all-season star (ideal for fall/winter warmth or year-round sophistication, perfect from daytime poise to evening allure) that consistently draws compliments for its strong projection, distinctive sillage, and captivating unisex presence.
Performance excels as an Eau de Parfum: 8-12+ hours longevity (evolves masterfully from fruity-spicy burst to vanilla-woody finish), strong projection (generous yet polished trail), and impressive staying power—transitioning seamlessly into a lingering, enveloping hold. Fragrance lovers rave about its premium niche quality, masterful apple-lavender-vanilla synergy, and effortless luxury, though some note its prominent sweet vanilla—ideal for those seeking elevated oriental-floral scents with fruity freshness and creamy depth.
