Palissandre Night
Palissandre Night by Mizensir is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with nutmeg and ambroxan, moves into cypriol, labdanum, elemi and guaiac wood and dries down to sandalwood, patchouli and musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
Heart
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
