Novellista So Delicious — a Gourmand Story in a Fragrance
So Delicious is an eau de parfum by Novellista, released in 2024.
This unisex fragrance has an oriental gourmand character and was created for those who enjoy soft, sweet compositions with spicy and nutty nuances.
The name So Delicious sounds like a promise of a small olfactory pleasure—and the fragrance truly unfolds in an appetizing, warm and comforting way.
Novellista is a modern Italian niche brand founded in 2020 in the very heart of Italy.
The brand builds its aesthetic around narrative fragrances, turning each release into a story of its own.
In So Delicious, this idea is expressed especially vividly: the composition evokes a dessert with a golden crust, creamy sweetness and unexpected spicy accents.
The Fragrance’s Character and Development
At first, the perfume smells fresh and slightly spicy: a citrusy spark of bergamot meets cardamom and pistachio.
This opening does not veer into sharp freshness, quickly taking on a creamy, nutty mood instead. As it develops, the fragrance becomes denser, warmer and noticeably sweeter.
In the heart, peanut blends with saffron, giving the familiar gourmand accord character and a subtle dry spiciness.
That is why So Delicious does not come across as a simple vanilla fragrance: it offers a contrast between softness, golden warmth and delicate piquancy.
The dry-down envelops the skin in honey, tonka bean, vanilla and musk, leaving a calm, comforting aftertaste.
Wearability and Sillage
The perfume is presented as unisex, although its sweet nutty-vanilla character will particularly appeal to fans of cozy gourmand compositions.
It is well suited to cool spring days, autumn and winter, as well as evenings, dates, leisurely walks or cozy moments at home.
In warm weather, it is best applied sparingly so that its honeyed vanilla facet remains elegant.
So Delicious has very subtle sillage: the fragrance stays close to the skin and does not try to fill the entire space around you.
It is a great choice for the office, travel and situations when you want to enjoy your perfume personally without creating a loud cloud around you.
For application, 1–2 sprays on the skin and the same amount on clothing are enough.
Who Will Love So Delicious
This fragrance is worth trying if you are looking for soft sweetness without excessive intensity.
It combines pistachio-and-nutty deliciousness, honeyed warmth, spicy saffron and a gentle vanilla base.
The composition will appeal to both women and men who prefer intimate, comforting and easily recognizable oriental gourmand fragrances.
If you would like to compare So Delicious with other sweet compositions, take a look at Oriflame Yo! Vanilla Ice, The Spirit of Dubai Majalis and Vertus Vanilla Oud.
They may also appeal to lovers of vanilla, warm spices and rich gourmand accords, but So Delicious stands out for its combination of pistachio, peanut and honey paired with exceptionally delicate sillage.
