Valaya by Parfums de Marly is a floral-musky-woody fragrance created by Julien Sprecher that was launched in 2023. The fragrance is described as a unique play on codes, materials, and subtle contrasts, evoking the skin sensation of the petticoat ladies wore under their various garments during the 18th century, or the modernity of a white shirt worn directly against the skin.
