Our view
Nuit de Bakélite interprets a night-blooming flower, tuberose, in a green, obsessive and addictive version. Galbanum brings earthy, damp and very green notes, and a touch of styrax adds a smoky veil. A unique trail, to be discovered on the skin. In 2018, it won three awards: the Fragrance Foundation France Experts’ Award (Best Niche & Independent Brand Fragrance), the Art and Olfaction Award in the Independent category and the Olfactorama Prix de l’émotion.
When to wear it
All year round, and especially in the evening. For lovers of daring tuberoses, far from creamy versions.
