Fleur de Nuit
Fleur de Nuit by Van Cleef & Arpels is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the premium price tier. It opens with pink pepper and petitgrain, moves into tuberose and sea salt and dries down to sandalwood, vanilla and white musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
Heart
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Sea Salt Mineral and dry. Skin after a day at the beach.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
