I have tested it and I very like it ! The fruits are very good and cool. I love the notes peach and sweat pea. I think it's for young girls.

I have had this scent for ages, but it always disappoints me - but not because it is a horrid fragrance in any way.
I like the start - sharp & green, a touch of mouth-watering peach, sweet peas start to bloom - but this lasts moments on my skin. From then on in it's a soft, sugary, fruit-fest which weakens & sweetens within minutes to a candied fruit drydown. It's barely there on me after 20 mins.
It's gone in a flash & far too sugary for my taste (if only it stayed more like the opening!) but it would be ideal for a young lady in summer & the bottle makes it an ideal gift fragrance (word of warning, the bottle's frosting scratches incredibly easily, watch your nails!).

This was one of those perfumes that I bought in my younger days. I gave it to my mom as she loves the scnet so much, but one day I miss this scent and wanna get a spritz from the bottle I gave her and found that she already used it up. I sniffed the cap of the bottle and I found myself fell in love with it ever since. I spent so many years finding this again and finally a retailer helped me to get some bottle back from Macau! I am so glad that I can have it again and I will keep it as one of my collections, I won't use it up.

From memory, Deci Dela means "Here and There" or something close to that. Yes, this is a happy fragrance, for the young at heart but still sophisticated.
One of my favourites. Love the bottle.

a bit sharp,a bit fruity,a bit soapy and a bit bitter at the first sniff.I can't call it classic nor modern.shape of the bottle,the fruity notes and specially raspberry bring some hints of a modern scent,while the soapy and florential notes remind me a classic fragrance.
as the time passes it turns to something pure floral.still there are something bitter.I think it can be oakmoss(although not listed here)
this is a sophisticated scent for the time it came it,I have the miniature of this one and 4 other nina ricci fragrances in a box and I think this one matches my chemistry better than the other classics.
if someday I want to buy a classic perfume,I rather to buy this one.
by the way I'm so curious to know the meaning of the name "DECI DELA".if somebody knows,please help out here.

As a kid I used to open my mum's drawer of perfumes when she was at work. And I always, ALWAYS ,spritzed only deci dela on my skin. It was so gorgeous and fresh.Peaches and oakmoss.And something "pink"! I still have a bottle and whenever I use it I feel a bright aura around me.So beautiful memories from this one!

I have had 2 bottles of it. It is a very floral and as others have said a young girl's perfume. Of course a woman of any age can wear it. Maybe some day I will get another bottle.

This is my favourite perfume. I have worn perfumes such as Miss Dior, Bulgari, Annick Goutal's Eau de Sud but time after time I go back to Deci Dela. It makes me feel very youthful, fresh, happy and ready to face the day. The smell is sweet and inviting and very welcoming. It has the warmth and openness that makes people want to meet you. Such a lovely perfume.

I disagree with dolita.
I used to wear this years ago and i still think it's young at heart. Sweet caramel fruity punch all things a young girl likes.Maybe you are too old for this??

I understand why it did not have much popularity when it was launched. Too woodsy, too chypre-y for the 90s that were full of watermelons, cucumbers and other fresh things. But - I still love it, love it, love it...Somehow I think of it as of a contemporary version of Mitsouko - a bit more sweet, a bit more girly, but classy and chic nevertheless.I can wear it anytime, anywhere and always feel as it was made for me.

This is one very gorgeous fragrance! Classy, breezy, romantic even. It lasts too. A beautiful experience.

This scent is a mixture of all that is fun in fragrance! This is a scent for a carefree summer day at a fair or carnival. Deci Dela is not cloyingly sweet or too strong. It could be worn by a child or by an older woman. Does having fun really have an age limit??? I will always chase fire flies at dusk & run through sprinklers!This scent is hard to classify in my opinion. On my skin Deci's hazelnut roasts, the cedarwood is freshly chopped, the apricot has just ripened & the juicy ripe raspberries are about to be savored. For some reason this scent makes me think of that poem 'WHEN I AM AN OLD WOMAN I SHALL WEAR PURPLE'.
