Lingua Planta Nightflowers is a sweet, powdery floral that is lifted by green and citrus touches, and it sits comfortably in unisex territory.

What does Nightflowers smell like?

Voters find both its longevity and its sillage good, which points to a scent that leaves a clear trail. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing more specific can be said about when it fits, but its unisex profile suits anyone who likes florals.

The notes read as one whole rather than a layered progression: French iris, ylang-ylang and jasmine form the floral body. Cocoa butter and vanilla add sweetness, cardamom brings a little spice, and patchouli gives an earthy base, while French orris root deepens the powdery feel. Léonard Léonard and Versace White Jeans have a close profile.
