Ex Nihilo
Fleur Narcotique
Ex Nihilo Fleur Narcotique smells like petals pressed between pages, with bergamot laid over the top.

How it moves
Up top: bergamot, lychee and peach. Enjoy them; they will not stay. Peony, jasmine and orange blossom are where it actually lives. The base is musk, moss and woods. That is the bit on your scarf the next morning.
What wearers say

Who made it
Quentin Bisch composed it in 2015, for Ex Nihilo in France. The Parisian house's breakout hit, a peony-and-lychee floral that became one of the most widely worn niche fragrances of the last decade.
