Salvador Dalí Dali de Toilette is a Parfum launched in 1985, created by Alberto Morillas. Dali de Toilette opens with Green Notes, Fruity Notes, Bergamot, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Salvador Dalí's Dali de Toilette carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Divisive, dramatic, and intensely '80s, Dali de Toilette is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect strong aldehydes and unapologetic grandeur - it's certainly not a crowd-pleaser for modern noses, but a masterpiece for vintage lovers.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its immense sillage and longevity, combined with its heavy, vintage oriental-floral character, make it entirely unsuitable for office or casual wear. This fragrance shines in formal and date settings, particularly in cooler weather, where its bold and luxurious presence can be appreciated without overwhelming others.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Dali de Toilette opens with a sharp, green aldehyde blast, quickly introducing a rich, spicy heart of clove and a potent bouquet of white florals, with narcissus at the fore. This opulent core then descends into a deep, warm, and balsamic drydown, featuring prominent amber, myrrh, patchouli, and sandalwood. The vanilla adds a touch of creamy sweetness, balancing the darker, resinous notes.
