Frais et Frais Naugeux is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Naugeux opens with Cardamom and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Musk, and dries down to a base of Ebony, Amber, Cedar, and Vetiver. Frais et Frais's Naugeux carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Skip this if you're not into musk. Naugeux is a bold, woody-spicy trip that's totally divisive; some absolutely rave about its unique character, while others find it just a bit much.

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 Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Built on woody, aromatic and warm spicy - a composition that sits best in spring, autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold woody and musky profile leans away from office wear, where it might be too strong, but suits date nights and formal settings due to its rich, confident character. It's too substantial for casual daytime or sporty activities.

About

Naugeux kicks off with a warm, inviting blast of cardamom and nutmeg, instantly setting a rich-spicy tone. Beneath this initial warmth, a hefty dose of clean, animalic musk emerges, creating a smooth and enveloping heart. As it settles, it deepens into a sophisticated blend of dark ebony and robust cedar, bolstered by earthy vetiver and a hint of amber, leaving a lasting, woody-aromatic trail. It's a scent that smells distinctively modern and almost Nordic in its clean woodiness.
