Nocturnes de Caron

Name: Nocturnes de Caron Eau de Parfum
Brand: Parfums Caron

Parfums Caron Nocturnes de Caron is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1981, created by Gérard Lefort. Nocturnes de Caron opens with Rose, Aldehydes, Neroli, and Orange, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, and Musk. Parfums Caron's Nocturnes de Caron carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This isn't just a perfume; it's a statement. Nocturnes is a soapy, aldehydic floral that sparks strong opinions: a nostalgic love for some, an old-fashioned miss for others. It's truly a "know it when you smell it" scent, so don't blind buy.

About

Nocturnes opens with a bright, bracing burst of aldehydes and fresh orange, quickly joined by the lush sweetness of neroli and rose. The heart unfolds into a rich, creamy bouquet of white and yellow florals - jasmine, ylang-ylang, and a subdued tuberose. As it dries, a warm, soft base of vetiver, sandalwood, and musk emerges, leaving a clean, woody-powdery trail with a persistent hint of citrus.
