NEST New York Passiflora is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Christophe Laudamiel. Passiflora opens with Green Notes, settles into a heart of Passion Flower, and dries down to a base of Hyacinth and Lily of the Valley. NEST New York's Passiflora carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Divisive and discontinued, Passiflora is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. For some, it's a vibrant, dewy green floral masterpiece; for others, a 'rotting vegetation' nightmare. Not one for a blind buy.

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.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Its moderate sillage and 'natural' but strong character make it better suited for casual wear or outdoors. The intensity and unique green notes might be too much for a formal setting or the office, but it could work for a relaxed date.

About

Opens with an intensely verdant blast of 'green notes,' like crushing fresh stems or walking through a dewy, overgrown garden after rain. This gives way to the exotic, slightly tangy sweetness of passion flower, often described as watermelon-esque, before settling into a soft, indolic base of hyacinth and lily of the valley. It's a complex, hyper-realistic floral green that evokes a lush, humid ecosystem.
