How it Smells
Fatima Pink bursts open with a tart, almost aggressively fruity rhubarb note. The lychee is there, but it's less juicy and more candied than Delina's bright, photorealistic fruit. Bergamot adds a needed citrusy lift. The heart is where this leans closest to its inspiration: a powdery, romantic Turkish rose dominates, softened by peony and a hint of vanilla. It's pretty, undeniably. The drydown sheds some of the initial sweetness, leaving a slightly synthetic musk anchored by cashmeran and a whisper of vetiver. It mimics Delina's DNA closely, achieving about 91% similarity. The main difference lies in the ingredients; Fatima Pink has a slight synthetic edge, especially noticeable in the opening and drydown.
Longevity & Projection
This stuff *performs*. Initial projection is strong, creating a noticeable scent bubble for the first 2-3 hours. It settles closer to the skin after that, but longevity is impressive. I get a solid 7-8 hours on skin, and it lingers on clothes for days. It’s room-filling for at least an hour, so go easy on the sprays!
Bottom Line
Fatima Pink is for the woman who loves the *idea* of Delina but balks at the price tag. It captures the essence: romantic, feminine, and slightly flirtatious. While it lacks the refined quality and natural sparkle of the original, it’s a surprisingly good dupe. If you crave that powdery rose and fruity sweetness but don’t want to drop hundreds, this is a viable option. The original is arguably more nuanced and blended, but For others, Fatima Pink will more than scratch the itch.
