Elania

Scent Breakdown

Elania nails the Delina vibe pretty well, I'd say it's 85-89% similar. That bright, fruity rose is definitely present. You get the initial tartness of the rhubarb and lychee, softened by the bergamot. The heart is rose-dominant, but with a noticeable vanilla sweetness that wasn't quite as prominent in the original. The drydown is a comfy musk and cashmeran blend. It's not as nuanced as Delina; there's a slightly synthetic edge, particularly in the opening, but it's hard to complain.

Bottom Line

Elania is a solid choice It's a great daily driver for the office, brunch, or any casual occasion where you want to smell pretty and feminine. It's not a perfect dupe, and a trained nose will likely be able to tell the difference, but for everyday wear, it does the job admirably. If you're on a budget, grab Elania and enjoy the compliments.

Wear time & Sillage

Longevity is surprisingly decent. I get a good 6-7 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first couple of hours, creating a nice scent bubble. It then settles closer to the skin, becoming a more intimate fragrance. Two sprays is probably enough for most situations; over-spraying could be cloying.
