Darling

by Thierry Wasser

Kylie Minogue Parfums Darling is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Thierry Wasser. Darling opens with Passionfruit, Litchi, and Freesia, settles into a heart of Boronia and Lily, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Amber, and Vanilla. Kylie Minogue Parfums's Darling carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Divisive, darling. Some call it an affordable, sexy tropical chypre akin to Gucci Rush, while others wish they could return their 'rotting fruit' bottle. Apparently, the original is a sought-after gem, but good luck finding one that hasn't turned.

About

Darling opens with a burst of tropical bliss, as passionfruit and litchi intertwine with fresh freesia. This juicy, vibrant introduction then gives way to a unique floral heart where boronia and lily bloom, before settling into a warm, creamy base of sandalwood, amber, and vanilla. It’s a sweet and fruity journey with a sophisticated twist.
