Moresque Diadema EDP in detail
Diadema EDP comes from Moresque. This one is the Eau de Parfum.
Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. It lasts longer than Linari Angelo Di Fiume. Base notes like Madagascar vanilla and caramel are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. It spreads further than Jil Sander Sun and Linari Angelo Di Fiume.
The style of Diadema
The strongest accord is vanilla (100%), followed by sweet and gourmand. You will probably like it if you enjoy vanilla and sweet smells and notes like ylang-ylang and Madagascar vanilla. Less obvious notes include bergamot, May rose and benzoin. Perfume fans rate it 3.89 out of 5.
Diadema through the year
The best time of year to wear it is winter. It is less suited to spring. Ranked by season: winter, fall, summer and spring. Its warm smell feels best when the weather is cold.
Other Moresque perfumes
The house has 23 perfumes here, led by Scirocco, Sandal Granada and The Secret Collection Seta.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its vanilla side feels cosy and rich after dark. For daytime, Linari Angelo Di Fiume is a lighter match.
