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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Built on amber, warm spicy and rose - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This is a powerhouse scent with serious longevity, making it unsuitable for the office but perfect for dates and evening events. The rich amber, rose, and oud accords lend themselves to formal settings, while its strong projection might be too much for casual daytime wear.

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

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

Nuit Royale opens with a rich, almost liturgical incense, blended with the slightly green, rosy facets of geranium and a hint of warm, leathery saffron. The heart unfolds into a jammy, dark rose, boosted by the unexpected sweetness of raspberry and the warm embrace of amberwood. As it dries down, a sophisticated oud emerges, providing a deep, woody foundation that lingers for ages.
