ABOUT

Queen of the Night Flower is a nocturnal white-floral accord: opulent and creamy yet ethereal, with honeyed, slightly indolic facets that recall tuberose and jasmine but with a more airy, moonlit quality and subtle green, powdery or watery undertones. Its bloom is simultaneously sweet and narcotic, suggesting a lush, fleeting perfume heart. In perfumery it is used as a heart or signature accord to evoke mysterious, romantic night gardens, adding sensuality and depth; it is commonly paired with citrus or green tops and anchored by woods, musks or resins in white-floral, oriental or gourmand compositions.
