First Impressions & Dry Down
Arte Bellisimo Romantic nails the Delina vibe, maybe 88% there. The opening is bright with that signature rhubarb and lychee tang, though it has a slightly sharper, more synthetic edge than Delina's smoother, almost jammy start. The heart brings in the Turkish rose and peony, sweet and floral but with a noticeable vanilla boost that makes it a touch creamier and less tart than the OG. The drydown is where they differ most. The cashmeran and musk are amped up here, giving it a slightly powdery, almost "clean laundry" feel that Delina avoids. It's a solid interpretation, but side-by-side, the difference in quality is noticeable.
Projection Power
This clone actually performs surprisingly well. I get a solid 6-7 hours on my skin with moderate projection for the first 2-3 hours. It creates a nice scent bubble without being obnoxious. You'll get noticed, but you won't clear a room. For a cheaper clone, that's pretty impressive.
Conclusion
It’s not a perfect dupe, but it captures the essence and performs admirably. The synthetic edge is there, but it's not a deal-breaker. This is a great daily driver for the office or running errands when you want to smell pretty without breaking the bank. Get it, spray it, and enjoy the compliment.
