Ex Nihilo

Lust in Paradise

Lust in Paradise by Ex Nihilo is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with pink pepper, moves into rose and dries down to musk, cedarwood and ambroxan. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.

Heart

• Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.

Dry-down

• Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
• Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
• Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
