Had it about 10 years ago. Got it as a present from a boy-friend. Was dissapointed at first as I was expecting to receive classic floral Dali parfum which I "ordered". Didn't like it at all at first sniff, as I had never liked sweet scents before. After trying it on, I liked it very much though! Sweet and really warming in cold weather. But unfortunately sometimes I noticed I had headaches the time I wore it. So, not exactly "my" perfume. But I can recommend it for those who like sweet oriental fragrances for cold season, just don't overdo it, it's quite strong and long-lasting.

Dalimania starts out with a fairly sweet and hard-hitting fruity note of apricot. that after a few minutes starts to separate into orange and peach develops. The overall mixture is sweet with a sour kick.

Floral notes start developing while the peachy aroma is still dominant. The mixture reminds me of the fresh and somewhat sharp and lily of the valley smell mixed with lots of fruit. I have to the say, the fruity dominance masks most of the floral notes throughout and even seep into the base notes.

The floral essences simply tone down the fruit and add some depth, thus the olfactory equivalent would be like smelling a single flower amongst lots of overripe fruit. There’s a fair amount of sillage which is by no means overpowering.

Halfway through the middle notes, the fragrance develops a creamy edge with a slight peachy tinge to it. There’s definitely a milk note and the smell of raw coconut milk) that gives Dalimania a sort of cloudiness mixed with a subtle and non-foody vanilla aroma.

The drydown is a whisper of fruit within a milky, creamy oriental base that will stay close to the skin and last till about 8 – 9 hours.

Dalimania remains a staple when I’m looking for a rich, sweet exotic fruity floral fragrance with an oriental streak –a very ‘nineties’ thing and typical of the decade. Recommended.

Very simple sweet scent, not heavy at all but not lasting either. I can smell it only when I sniff my wrist, otherwise - undetectable for my nose. I wouldn't mind it for free or at a very reasonable price, otherwise - wouldn't buy it. The bottle is beautiful though and by the way - warm milky vanilla is surprisingly pleasant in the dry down.

I can feel peach, blackberry and coconut in this fragrance. This fragrance is very warm and sweet, even sickly sweet, that is why I don't like it.

I'm in love with Dalimania!
I bought it barely sniffed but thanks to the reviews my purchase was a full hit.

After all, I'm a gourmand scents hunter and this one is exactly what I like - a yummy fragrance! It smells mostly like fig jam (as mentioned), and other components - vanilla, musk, peach, caramel and softening milk. What a lovely composition!

The staying power is impressive, having in mind the price. I'd catch its smell 8-9 hours after spraying it.

Not strong or heavy.
Sweet and close to skin, so it doesn't annoy people around you.
I don't think it's a sweeter version of Dalissime. The bottles are similar, but the scents are quite different. Dalimania smells a little "gourmand" for me, and Dalissime is sugary, peachy, but clean, not "eatable" :)

Sweet but with a twist...the coconut in this perfume is light enough that it doesn't smell like sun-tan lotion, but makes you notice it. Kind of a hard thing to do (IMO) as coconut usually drowns out all other notes and makes a perfume seem juvenile...but not this bad boy! I'm glad I tried this one. The dry down reminds me SOOOO much of Burberry Brit Red, and I already have that one, so I don't think I will be purchasing this one.
For those of you who wanted to like BBR but could not stand the rhubarb note, you may want to give this one a go.

sweet is right, after i sprayed this the first time, one of my apartment mates who walked into the kitchen (my room is next to the kitchen) asked me whether i was making cinnamon rolls. :) i haven't really had time to study the fragrance yet though, so this post will receive an update soon.

Ok at first, but after a few minutes on me it smelled mainly of boiled sweets - jam rather than fruit, and not attractive at all

I love this one. Not like other oriental parfumes that can be to heavy.
I always get stopped on the streets by people asking about this parfume.
It is a sweet, warm, very female scent, work best at nights.
Sadly, i'ts out of production, at least in sweden.

Very, very sweet, like sugared fruits or orange marmelade.
