Nightingale

Imagine walking through a historic botanical garden just after sunrise. Fresh citrus brightens the morning air, blossoms are beginning to open, and the warmth of aged wood gives the garden a quiet sense of history. That is what nightingale means and feels to me.

It smells like a berry-like note at first. Later on it’s a balance between cherry blossom with a light damp woodiness to it

Nightingale opens with a citrusy freshness and a fine spice. Even in these first minutes, the deep, floral base can be sensed in the background. As it develops, the citrus and spice fade quickly. A soft and soapy rose takes the lead, supported by a delicate sweetness. In the base note, oakmoss and patchouli introduce light earthy-woody strands, but the rose remains dominant throughout, though it loses its stiffness. The longevity is very good, while the sillage remains rather close to the skin to slightly projecting. Overall, the fragrance starts pleasantly, but for my taste, it gets too lost in this floral-soapy theme. A distinctly feminine fragrance for the entire year.
