Our verdict on Christian Lacroix Nuit: Statement

This Avon outlier is a fascinating blend of designer aspirations and budget reality, polarising wearers between adoration and outright disdain. Expect a dark, fruity floral with a smoky depth that punches above its price point - if it works on your skin.

About

Christian Lacroix Nuit opens with a juicy burst of bergamot and honeysuckle before dropping into a heady heart of jasmine and tuberose. The real show, however, is the rich, smoky base of amber and incense, undercut by woody notes and a clean musk, creating a 'purple berry' illusion despite no such notes being present. It transforms from a sweet floral into a dense, mysterious aura, with the incense lending an almost sacred, contemplative quality.
