by Sidonie Lancesseur

Nectar Olfactif Secret du Nil is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. The fragrance opens with Almond, Bergamot, and Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Almond, Neroli, Honey, and Orange, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane, Musk, Cedar, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on Secret du Nil: Favourite

This one's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. Some will adore its bright, creamy neroli and almond sweetness, others will find it too sharp and even 'soapy'. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test it first to see which side of the Nile you land on.

Given its creamy yet airy projection, Secret du Nil is versatile for casual and date settings, especially during the day. Its moderate longevity and sillage prevent it from being overpowering for office wear, though some find it too polarising for formal events.

About

Opens with a zesty, bitter orange and bergamot punch, quickly followed by a prominent neroli. That initial brightness softens into a creamy, almost powdery almond sweetened with honey and a touch of vanilla and sugar cane. Expect a delicate balance between fresh citrus and a warm, slightly gourmand base, anchored by subtle musk and cedar.
