Maison Louis Marie No.13 Nouvelle Vague is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. No.13 Nouvelle Vague opens with Coconut Water, Lemon, and Lily of the Valley, settles into a heart of Tonka Bean, Fig, and Agave, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Maison Louis Marie's No.13 Nouvelle Vague carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This lactonic fig and coconut number is a true split-decision scent. Some find it a creamy, luxurious escape to a European summer, while others are baffled by an unpleasant synthetic or rubbery note that makes it unwearable. Sample first, definitely.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Its generally subtle projection and fresh yet warm character make it suitable for casual wear and even office settings, provided you don't experience the rubbery notes. It's likely too understated for formal events but its creamy warmth could work for a relaxed date.

About

No.13 Nouvelle Vague opens with a curious blend of lily of the valley, clean lemon and a distinct coconut water accord. This quickly softens into a creamy, almost lactonic fig sweetened by agave and a hint of tonka bean. The dry down is a warm, woody embrace of vetiver, sandalwood and amber, grounding the initial brightness with a subtle, earthy depth that some love and others find surprisingly off-putting.
