Nicolaï Parfumeur-Créateur Pavlova is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Patricia de Nicolaï. Pavlova opens with Pineapple, Passionfruit, and Rum, settles into a heart of Peach, Raspberry, and Coconut, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Nicolaï Parfumeur-Créateur's Pavlova carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Skip the dessert, grab this instead. A glorious, juicy pineapple bomb with a creamy, boozy twist, though its namesake is a bit of a misnomer. This one is polarising; some love the tropical sweetness, while others find it too much or too similar to mass-market offerings.

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

Its bright, sweet, and tropical nature makes it perfect for casual outings and warm-weather dates. While it has good performance, the strong fruity blast might be a bit much for a formal setting or a quiet office environment, though some find its drydown subtle enough.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Opens with an immediate hit of bright, juicy pineapple and tangy passionfruit, spiked with a mischievous dash of rum. As the tropical fruits settle, a creamy coconut note emerges, bringing a smooth, almost meringue-like texture. It dries down to a soft base of vanilla, musk, and cedar, offering a subtle warmth and airiness to the vibrant fruity cocktail. Far from a true gourmand, it’s a playful and fresh take on tropical sweetness.
