Salum Parfums Delicious Bay is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Luca Maffei. Delicious Bay opens with Bergamot, Violet, and Calone, settles into a heart of Date, Oud, Saffron, and Honey, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Salum Parfums's Delicious Bay carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Delicious Bay is an ambitious marine gourmand that some find intoxicatingly unique, while others describe it as a sweet, salty, and utterly nauseating mess. Proceed with caution and a decant.

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its potent projection and unique, sometimes divisive, gourmand-marine character make it a poor fit for office settings. However, its longevity and singular profile are perfect for dates or evening formal events where you want to make an impression. It's a bit too much for casual daytime wear unless you're feeling adventurous.

About

Imagine a rich, sweet gourmand treat - dates and honey, thick and luscious - then throw it into the sea. Delicious Bay opens with a sparkling freshness of bergamot and violet, quickly giving way to an unexpected aquatic calone note. This marine breeze then swirls into a heart of sticky dates, honey, and exotic saffron, with a hint of oud. The base anchors this adventurous blend with creamy pecan, warm amber, and velvety vanilla, creating a truly 'out of the box' oriental marine gourmand experience.
