Blanche Absolu לעומת Delina

Blanche Absolu receives mixed reviews from the r/fragrance community, with opinions sharply divided between those who love its clean, fresh aesthetic and those who find it smells like industrial cleaner. While successful blind buyers appreciate its Byredo quality and aldehydic composition, many expected it to be a more faithful concentrated version of the original Blanche, noting it's sweeter and closer to fragrances like Another 13 or Baccarat Rouge instead.

The r/fragrance community has overwhelmingly positive feelings toward Delina despite initial skepticism about hype, with many users experiencing a surprising 180-degree change in opinion upon testing. The fragrance is praised for its beautiful fruity-floral profile and longevity, though some find it gives headaches or too generic, and the high retail price drives many to seek dupes or smaller sizes. Multiple community members report it as a gateway niche fragrance that has become a personal favorite.
