Well-blended
I have read and watched a lot of reviews about this perfume and blind bought it in FragranceX. I have great trust in getting authentic perfumes in FragranceX. Layton of Parfum de Marly is fresh and fruity enough to wear in warm weather, but at the same time, warm and spicy to wear in the colder months. It is a polarizing fragrance, some may not like it, but I've come to enjoy and appreciate such well-blended scent.

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Top notch fragrance
Parfums de Marly Layton is the perfect balance of fruity smells melded with sweet, warm, vanilla essence. It combines a crisp summer fragrance with the warmth and earthiness of a winter fragrance. It somehow manages to straddle the point where these types of fragrances meet and executes it perfectly. It's an amazing scent that can work for an occasion and any season. A great daily wear or something to spray on only for special occasions. I feel the performance could be better as it becomes a skin scent after only a couple of hours.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Well balanced and amazing
This is a very popular fragrance and I can see why. Parfums de Marly managed to perfectly balance a sweet, rich scent with a fruity, fresh scent. It's amazing how well-blended and balanced this fragrance is. It can be a signature scent, formal or for warm or cold weather. An amazing fragrance, but with surprisingly limited sillage and lasting power. That's my one main complaint is the lasting power. Other than that an amazing fragrance.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I would not buy this one again
Blind buy for me, I wanted to like this one. It's very different from any other scent that i own. It reminds me of a sweet cinnamon with hint of fruity vibe. Alot going on with this scent. I would say its best suited for winter because of how powerful and the warm tone it brings. I would give it a 6/10. My girlfriend hated it. My best friend hated it as well.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Does not last long! Not worth it!
Does not last long! Bath and body works lotion last longer. I love the smell but for the price? Not too sure, I've had a sample and that lasted 12 hours plus easily! But now that I pulled the trigger and have the full bottle, it's very disappointing. Very dissatisfied and unfortunately I can not recommend this or even the site. Trust me I want to say good things but hopefully it will help someone else.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

I feel exclusive and confident when I smell it on me. It's a bit mysterious when i still can smell the trace of Layton the next day after i shower. the day before I used it day time and use another fragrance for night.

Worthy of the hype
Layton gets a ton of hype in the fragrance community and for good reason. Really easy to wear and has a ton of notes to it. It lasts all day on my skin and will stay on clothes for days. If I am going to give anything a negative it would be the presentation. The bottle and cap are nice but at over $300 retail for 125ml I would expect a nicer box presentation. That ding is insignificant in the grand scheme I would say the value is still there.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

A must for any man's collection
Smells amazing from the first spray until hours later. It's not overpowering. You'll get compliments every time you wear it as long as you don't over spray it. I think 3 sprays max is the key. You can wear this for any occasion, but because of the price, I wouldn't suggest wearing it as an every day smell. I'd keep it for any occasion you want to smell and feel like French Royalty lol.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Fantastic and long lasting scent but.....
Overall the fragance has a great smell and it last about 8 hours. The only reason I would not recomment buying this fragance is that there is no way to validate the Lot code at the bottom of the bottle. I tried to verify if this is an original fragance but I didn't succed eventhough I've heard that fragancex is a valid website.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Blind Buy. I do like it.
Blind Buy and I like it. Heard so much about Parfums De Marly so I had to blind buy as all the testers on websites were out of this particular "Layton". I would wear it to anywhere except to the office. Its very long lasting. I prefer my fragrances to be able to be smelled by myself throughout the day. It's nice if others can smell it too but if I can't even smell it while I'm wearing one, then what's the point? You can tell the ingredients are very expensive. I will have to try the others that house of Marly has to offer. Yummy. Enjoy.
