Details on EX NIHILO Chandigarh Express

Imagine a journey to the 1950s in Northern India. This scent captures the spirit of Chandigarh, a dream city built where the mountains meet the jungle. It represents a bold union of French vision and Indian heritage. A modernist utopia rising from nature. The vibe blends sophisticated leathery textures with the wildness of a tropical forest. It is a tribute to vanguard architects who designed a new world from nothing.

How does EX NIHILO Chandigarh Express smell?

The experience opens with a cool, vibrant mix of cardamom, bergamot, and juicy mandarin. This fresh start quickly evolves into a complex heart where smooth leather meets the green depth of balsam-fir and sweet jasmine. Hints of davana add a unique fruity touch. Finally, the scent settles into a warm, long-lasting base of vetiver, earthy patchouli, and rich benzoin. It is a distinctive spicy and woody adventure.

Sterile leather without depth

Chandigarh Express starts with a cool, almost medicinal cardamom that quickly combines with a very smooth, synthetic-feeling leather. The scent remains too sterile and generic for my taste, as the various spice and floral notes drift into one another in an undefined way. For the high price, it does not offer me the necessary quality to justify it.

Clean, subtle leather scent.

Sexy, slightly risqué, a gentleman and classy all at once. This unmistakable Ex Nihilo DNA is present once again and captivates me brutally!

Light leather & soft sweetness

It starts off beautifully with super high-quality light leather, and after the drydown, a delicious sweetness emerges that is simply elegant. I would definitely recommend this fragrance to people who are hesitant to try leather scents. However, it does remind me a lot of Tom Ford Ombré Leather.
