PowderyWhat does Lux et Nox (Light and Night) smell like?
Jasmine, mimosa, lilac and violet shape the floral side, while aldehydes keep those flowers fresh and powdery. Black pepper and geranium add a light spicy edge, and peach and blackcurrant bring a soft fruity touch. Sandalwood, patchouli, musk and hay give the scent a warm, woody base to rest on. A synthetic sheen also runs through the accords. It has a close profile to Ulric de Varens Mini Purple and Clean The Original.
