Lalique 1995 EDP
Nilang
Lalique Nilang is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1995, created by Gérard Anthony. Nilang opens with Water Lily, Jasmine, Freesia, and Narcissus, settles into a heart of Blueberry and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Lalique's Nilang carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.
Nilang is a divisive throwback to the 90s, blending aquatic and gourmand notes into something truly unique. Some find it a captivating, complex floral-oriental, while others can't stomach its intensity. Definitely not for the faint of heart, but a must-try for those seeking something quirky and impactful.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
Its strong, complex profile, with significant sweetness and aquatic florals, makes it a bit much for a conservative office setting. However, its sensual and unique character, noted by reviewers, makes it suitable for date nights or casual outings where you want to make an impression. The aquatic elements can feel appropriate in warmer weather, despite its intensity.
