Composition
Launched in 2014, Nuit d'Issey is a woody-spicy nocturnal flanker. Grapefruit and bergamot open onto a heart of leather, spices, black pepper, vetiver and woodsy notes. Incense, ebony tree, tonka bean and patchouli deepen the dark, resinous base.
To me this smells like a city at midnight after rain — grapefruit and bergamot like wet neon, then the dark heart: leather and woodsy notes, spices and black pepper like a late-night market, vetiver green in the gutters. The base is incense and ebony, tonka and patchouli — smoke curling around dark wood, the smell of a bar that never closes. It is the night version of a fresh classic: same bones, different soul. Brooding, handsome, nocturnal. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
