Meet your new blowdryer.

Made in Italy since 1977.
Let's make this easy
Four models, one standard. The differences are real — weight, airflow, motor, quietness — but they're easier to shop than they look. Start here, then compare side by side.

Every specification below comes straight from the Canadian product data — nothing rounded, nothing guessed. The first question isn't which motor; it's how you actually dry your hair.

What matters most?
You don't need to care about motor names. Pick the thing you actually care about — the right Parlux follows.
Lightweight
The Digitalyon is the lightest professional Parlux ever made — 395g, with the most airflow in the range.
Shop the Digitalyon →Power
The Elysium is the most powerful Parlux at 2300W — or take the Digitalyon's 88 m³/h airflow, the highest in the range.
Shop the Elysium →Value
The Alyon is the lowest-priced dryer in the range — and the long-standing professional standard, in nine colours.
Shop the Alyon →Professional
The Alyon's motor is rated for 3,000 hours — the benchmark salons buy. The Digitalyon's digital motor holds speed under load.
Compare Alyon + Digitalyon →Curls + texture
The right dryer-diffuser pairing matters more than the dryer alone — every Parlux diffuser fits specific models.
See the diffusers →The right attachment
The right diffuser makes all the difference for curls and texture — softer airflow, better definition and less disruption to the curl pattern. Compatibility isn't universal, so check the model line on each card.
Magic Sense Diffuser
Adapter included — one diffuser that fits both the Alyon and the Digitalyon.
Alyon Light Diffuser
Designed for the Alyon's airflow specifically — volume and natural definition without frizz.
MagicCompact® Diffuser
Compact, travel-friendly, and built around the Elysium's output.
My Melody Silencer
Attaches to the rear intake and reduces noise without touching airflow — the Advance already has one built in.

Questions? We've got you.
Common questions.
The ones we answer at the front desk every week.
Any of them — the honest answer depends on your priority. Lighter arm: Digitalyon. Lowest price in the range: Alyon. Quieter out of the box: Advance. Maximum power and the newest tech: Elysium.
The Digitalyon, at 395g on the Canadian model — the lightest professional Parlux ever made. The Alyon is 449g.
The Digitalyon is the Alyon rebuilt around a digital motor — 54g lighter, quieter, with more airflow (88 vs 84 m³/h) at the same 1875W. The Alyon remains the proven standard at a lower price; the Digitalyon is the upgrade.
Airflow and power are what cut drying time. The Digitalyon has the highest airflow in the range at 88 m³/h; the Elysium is the most powerful at 2300W. Either will handle thick, long or resistant hair.
Alyon: the Alyon Light Diffuser or the Magic Sense Diffuser. Digitalyon: the Magic Sense Diffuser (adapter included). Elysium: the MagicCompact® Diffuser. Compatibility is listed on every accessory page — they are not interchangeable.
