When Delphinus fragrance oil and Centaurus fragrance oil samples first arrived at House of Scent, they instantly made us stop and say “Oh wow.”
Inspired by the luxury Creed fragrances, these two scents are rich, warm, and seriously addictive. They’re both built around deep amber bases, but they take completely different directions - one smooth and mysterious, the other bold and fiery.
And fun fact…House of Scent was the first UK supplier to stock Delphinus fragrance oil and Centaurus fragrance oil, so our customers got early access to these incredible scents before they started popping up elsewhere.
Let’s talk about them properly.
🐬 Delphinus Fragrance Oil
If you love smooth, warm, slightly smoky scents, Delphinus fragrance oil might just become one of your favourites.
Inspired by the Creed Delphinus fragrance, this scent has a gorgeous blend of spice, soft florals and warm amber notes that make it feel both cosy and elegant.
The fragrance opens with almond, incense and pepper, giving it a slightly smoky, spicy start that instantly feels luxurious.
As it settles, you start to notice softer notes like heliotrope, orchid and orris, which bring a powdery floral smoothness to the fragrance.
Then comes the part people really fall in love with - the base.
Warm vanilla, amber, tonka bean and patchouli create a creamy, comforting finish that lingers beautifully.
✨ Overall vibe: Think cosy evenings, warm lighting and that soft “expensive hotel lobby” type vibe.
