Exalt Nuit
Exalt Nuit by Navitus Parfums is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, cocoa, nutmeg and frankincense, moves into anise, benzoin, labdanum and jasmine and dries down to tobacco, patchouli, cedarwood and haitian vetiver. 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.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
Heart
- Anise Sweet, liquorice-like seed. Cool and slightly medicinal.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Haitian Vetiver Cleaner, smokier vetiver with a grapefruit lift. Less earthy than Javan.
