Ex Nihilo Lust in Paradise Extrait is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Louise Turner. Lust in Paradise Extrait opens with Pink Pepper, Ginger, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Petalia, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Akigalawood, Ambroxan, Musk, and Cedar. Ex Nihilo's Lust in Paradise Extrait carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A divisive yet captivating fruity-floral punch, this Extrait is a powerful upgrade for fans of the original, smoothing out the rough edges for a richer, more sensual experience. Expect compliments and a lingering, luxurious trail, but be warned: it's not for the faint of heart, or nose.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature make it less suitable for office wear, where it might overwhelm. However, these same qualities, combined with its bold, sensual accords, are perfect for making a statement on a date or at a formal event. It's too rich for sport, but could work for elevated casual outings where you want to leave an impression.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Lust in Paradise Extrait explodes with a vibrant, tart blackcurrant and subtle ginger kick, immediately softening into a lush bouquet of dewy rose and ethereal Petalia. The sophisticated floral heart is grounded by a warm, woody base of cedar and Akigalawood, with a clean musk and ambrofix adding depth and lasting power. It's a journey from sparkling fruit to a creamy, woody floral embrace.
