Honoré Delights
Honoré Delights by Ex Nihilo is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with bergamot and neroli, moves into orange blossom, iris and ambrette seed and dries down to sandalwood, cedarwood and musk. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
Heart
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
