Delilah Blanc

This is a Tuesday-morning perfume: bergamot and white peach up front, clean orange blossom in the middle, a soft musky-vanilla finish that reads like clean skin rather than perfume.

Bergamot, mandarin and a soft white peach lead, bright without being sharp. A short stretch of orange blossom and vetiver in the heart keeps it from turning candy-sweet. After an hour or two it settles into a powdery musk-and-vanilla base that sits close to the skin, more good lotion than perfume. It's built for office, brunch and warm weather, not for making an entrance.
