Dolores Paul Rieger — a 1913 fragrance that needs no introduction. A feminine fragrance from the floral family.
The home of this fragrance is the United States. Dolores Paul Rieger unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
A great perfume doesn't need lengthy explanations — it speaks for itself. The official website of Paul Rieger — http://www.dilis.by.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Dolores is shaped as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Paul Rieger is clear from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail.
In a unified mixed pyramid the opening appears as one connected movement with a voluminous floral mood: Floral Notes. In this format 1 note works as one coherent layer, forming romantic softness that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The deeper layers are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Floral with each one in a clear role. The profile is feminine, which clarifies the composition character.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Floral and Whiteflower. At family level the fragrance belongs to Floral.
Taken together Dolores sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best experienced through real development.
