“Althaïr” by Parfums de Marly is a warm, modern Eau de Parfum that spotlights creamy vanilla, bright citrus, and smooth praline woods in a confident, refined profile.

It opens with a fresh lift of bergamot and mandarin, sharpened by resinous elemi. The heart adds charisma with orange blossom and a spicy cardamom-cinnamon glow, then settles into a polished drydown of bourbon vanilla, guaiac wood, and praline—comforting, elegant, and built for cooler days and nights.

Bottle Description: A matte caramel-brown bottle with Parfums de Marly’s embossed twin-horse crest and shield, finished with a sleek metallic silver cap.

At Perfumes LA, we recommend it for evening wear, date nights, fall/winter rotation, and anyone who wants a vanilla-forward scent that feels upscale—not sugary.
