How does Cassili compare to Delina by Parfums de Marly?+−
They share the house's characteristic fruity-floral DNA, but Cassili is generally described as creamier, softer, and a little lighter in feel, while Delina skews more intensely floral and Delina Exclusif reads as richer and denser overall. If you find Delina Exclusif too thick or sweet, Cassili is often recommended as the more wearable alternative.
Is Cassili appropriate for daily wear or is it more of an occasion fragrance?+−
It works well for both. The community largely reaches for it as a daytime or leisure scent — something bright and polished for everyday wear — though the creamy, warm drydown makes it suitable for business or relaxed evening settings too. It's not a nightclub fragrance, but it carries itself with enough presence to feel intentional in most situations.
How does it perform in terms of longevity and projection?+−
Longevity is a genuine strength — most wearers report it lasting well through the day, with the vanilla and sandalwood base anchoring things long after the top notes have faded. Sillage is solid in the opening and settles to a noticeable but not overwhelming trail. A small number of people find it fades faster on their skin specifically, so sampling before committing is always worth doing.
