Nejma Le Mystérieux is a unisex fragrance built around star anise, damask rose and oud, pairing sweet notes with smoky, woody ones.
It opens with star anise, mandarin orange and caramelized pear, a fruity sweetness that cistus lends a resinous weight. The heart brings damask rose, everlasting flower, cocoa absolute and oud, turning the scent spicy and powdery. The base settles into tonka bean, suede, tobacco leaf and vetiver, drying down to a woody, earthy and smoky sweetness, with green and synthetic tones sitting quietly in the background. Tom Ford Oud Wood (Eau de Parfum) and Esteban Tonka have a close profile.
