Parfums MDCI Nuit Andalouse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Cécile Zarokian. Nuit Andalouse opens with Green Notes, Orange, and Violet, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Ylang-Ylang, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Amyl Salicylate, Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Parfums MDCI's Nuit Andalouse carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Divisive. Some find it a beautifully crafted, warm floral, while others dismiss it as synthetic, cloying, and frankly, a bit of a rip-off. Definitely try before you buy.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

Its moderate sillage and rich floral profile make it a good fit for romantic evenings or formal events, where its elegance can shine without overpowering. It's too opulent for active wear and might be a bit much for a conservative office setting.

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.

About

Nuit Andalouse opens with a fleeting burst of green notes and orange, quickly giving way to a rich, heady floral heart. Gardenia and ylang-ylang take centre stage, creating a creamy, slightly tropical sweetness. This opulent bouquet mellows into a soft base of vanilla, musk, and sandalwood, lingering on the skin with a warm, comforting embrace.
