Daniella 4D is a new perfume by Parfums by Daniella. After reading the name, Daniella Pavicic, in a press release, it hit me that this Daniella perfume is the perfume of dance musician, Daniella. It’s always a pleasure to see your little “niche interests” collide like this. After her signature perfume was discontinued, Daniella, with her entrepreneur spirit, had a new signature created.
4D opens with chocolate covered almonds and toasted coconut. 4D has a “lift” from a subtle cucumber and a tart cassis. The heart is a sweet patchouli and vetiver with a dewy gardenia in the background. 4D dries down to a soft, creamy sandalwood with white chocolate.
I see 4D as a versatile perfume oil. It could work on a tropical beach because of the gardenia and coconut. I also see it working in the cold winter months because of the patchouli and gourmand notes.
Notes listed include cucumber, bitter chocolate, almond blossom, black currant, coconut, sandalwood and patchouli. Launched 2014.
Give 4D a try if you like nouveau-boho perfume oils or coconut. Or if you like perfumes like Tom Ford Black Orchid, Ralph Lauren Ralph Hot, Kai, Mugler Angel, Shay & Blue Almond Cucumber, YOSH Omniscent and/or Sage Onyx.
The packaging is simple, art deco-ish and I like that. The roll-on is great for travel (it’s a slim roll-on). The name, I can barely say it without saying it like Eazy-E “Sippin on a 4-D“. You may not have this issue 😉
Projection and longevity are average.
The .35 oz perfume oil retails for $65 at Daniella Parfums. There’s also a candle in this scent (which I’m really interested in).
Victoria’s Final EauPINION – Nouveau-boho coconut floral. I’m such a sucker for perfume oils like this. And I see myself wearing this one a lot during this summer.

You almost had me at the Omniscent mention. The fragrance I thought you would mention was Monyette Paris. Is it anything like that? I see the site offers no samples. Hey Daniella- you should hookup with The Perfumed Court or Surrender to Chance, because this really does seem like the perfect summer scent.
I could see someone liking Monyette Paris and liking this one. So, you know how Monyette is all creamy? Replace that with “toasted” it’s more like Daniella. And you know how Kai is mainly gardenia? This is like if Kai decided to do the obligatory perfume “noir”-thing and added richer notes.
This was going to be my feedback as well: Please offer samples. I know they’re a headache (mailing out those little babies) but they are worth it in the long run. And since this has limited distribution, samples are a must (can’t go sniff in store). And if it is too big of a logistics problem, I hope that one of the sample sites approaches them 🙂
This sounds right up my alley, even if I can’t imagine cucumber with chocolate! We demand samples! 😉
Cucumber with chocolate was so bizarre to me too! But, the same thing is going on in Tom Ford Black Orchid. It’s like a “light” layer over a “dark” layer. Oddly works…but flavor-wise, I still think it is something that could never ever work.
