By the editors · 2 min readNox opens with a dense, waxy yellow-floral impression — ylang-ylang and mimosa together with lily create something simultaneously creamy and powdery. Bergamot provides some citrus lift, preventing the opening from feeling too heavy, though the florals dominate from the start.
Pink pepper in the heart adds a fresh-spicy prickle that cuts through the sweetness, and hinoki wood brings a cool, slightly medicinal quality. As the base arrives, patchouli and cedar ground the composition into earthier territory, while vanilla and white musk soften the overall feel considerably.
The overall character is a floral-woody construction with a creamy, spiced core — wearable as an evening scent in cooler weather.
