I've tried both, and i prefer the Decleor oil much more.

Decleor oil is more thick, and smells nicer, heavier smell.

Darphin has a very light faint smell, and the oil is more lightweight

Anyone else that has used both?

Each oil blend is different depending on the product ingredients. That said, I put some Darphin oil blend samples for dry skin and sensitive skin on my hand (I think one was called rose) and later got alligator texture on the spots so I'll stick with the Decleor Angelique and Neroli Aromessences which work well for me.

The Decleor website has issued a warning about counterfeit products - you had better all read it:
http://www.decleor.co.uk/more_decleor/official_statement

I'm a huge fan of facial oils, however, I have never purchased either the Decleor or the Darphin ones. But if you also like to use oils, why don't you just buy readily available essential and carrier oils then you can make concoctions to suit yourself. I'm sure it would be allot cheaper.

I've been eyeing the oils from these two brands for a while. It seems Darphin is more expensive. Maybe I will start with Decleor if it feels better on the skin.

yeah, ive bought almost all of the oils from both range, but i really prefer decleor's oil.

the texture, the scent, it really wins over Darphin, but i really like the Darphin 8 fleur nectar oil!

Hi Ladies, are these oils suitable for combination skin prone to break-outs? I'm getting really confused about what's best for my type. I suffer from break-outs yet when I went for a facial I was told that my skin is dehydrated and the facialist recommended the Aromaesence Neroli oil and balm. Thanks in advance for your advise.

Is the Decleor ylang ylang oil is good for a normal skin? My skin is not oily and not dry! Just.. normal! But I have some acne.

enjoys freebies · Sat Mar 07, 2009 8:23 am Quote

gentlemen u mean Very Happy

Yes, it is suitable!

Neroli is suitable for oily/combination skin!

Ylang is more of both.

If u have normal skin, Neroli + Essentiel Balm (night) and Neroli+ Hydra Floral moisturiser (morning)

Neroli is the entry-level, suitable to any skin type,Ylang Ylang fit oily, acne skin types

If you want to know the detailed differences, please check the ingredients. Everyone here has different skin type, and may not has the same experience with you.
So, the ingredients list may would help you if you want to know whether these products could help you deal with you problem or there is any ingredient not safe to you.

Definitely a good point, flyfly.

I use Decleor Aromessence as a moisturizer under cream (as I have dry skin). I first spray my face with Evian or other spring water which helps spread the oil blend it well. For oily skin, use Ylang Ylang which helps balance the skin.

I wanna know it too.

I know quality doesn't have a positive correlation with price tag but am curious if Darphin is bit better.

enjoys freebies · Thu Mar 19, 2009 10:19 am Quote

depends on how u like it

decleors oils are lil more thick, concentrated, smell better, stronger smell, etc

darphin oils doesnt smell as nice as decleor, but feel lighter on the skin.

I have never used the Darphin oils but have used Decloer neroli and ylang ylang for over 6 years now. They are a few of the constants I have in my cabinet. I try other lotions, etc. but always have these oils on hand. I use the ylang ylang when I am more oily or breaking out and use the neroli as an everyday oil. Love the scents and they are mild, you don't need much just a few drops. Usually I use them alone at night or will add the essential balm or hydra floral cream for a little more moisture.
