Les Indes Galantes is a gourmand through and through, opening with a sweet—almost candied—orange note, cleverly accented by almond. They are quickly joined by spicy notes of cinnamon and clove and a jammy, syrupy raspberry accord.

Like all white florals, it has its own set of peculiar facets alternatively described as mushroomy and blue cheese-like. To complicate matters further, gardenia does not readily yield an essential oil so perfumers are instead forced to use a combination of synthetics and essential oils of other white flowers to create a convincing gardenia accord. As a result, good gardenia fragrances should be considered a specific art of the highest order; an olfactory illusion performed for our enjoyment. Nuit Andalouse is one such marvel, authored by the incomparable Cécile Zarokian. The fragrance opens with a violet accord, the citric sweetness of orange oil and a burst of orange blossom. The fragrance soon segues into the heart of tuberose and ylang-ylang, both of which are legible up close. However, the magic of this fragrance is in the combined effect of the materials which work together seamlessly to produce an impressionistic rendering of a gardenia in full bloom. The whole of the fragrance is enveloped in a soft, peachy milkiness that blends wonderfully with the ylang-ylang in the heart and the high-quality sandalwood in the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e75 ml eau de parfum spray\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e$265.00\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 ml eau de parfum sample\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e$6.00\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MDCI","offers":[{"title":"75 ml eau de parfum","offer_id":43459398795323,"sku":"121205075","price":265.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 ml eau de parfum","offer_id":43459398828091,"sku":"121205001","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/8669\/0107\/files\/Nuit_Andalouse_avec_C3_A9tui_fond_blanc_300dpi.webp?v=1777304024"},{"product_id":"private-label","title":"Private Label • Jovoy","description":"\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHouse\u003c\/strong\u003e Jovoy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReleased\u003c\/strong\u003e 2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfumer \u003c\/strong\u003eCécile Zarokian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance Family \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.fumerie.com\/fragrance-families\/leather\/\"\u003eLeather\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e leather, papyrus, vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood, birch, cedar, cistus labdanum\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e Private Label by Jovoy is a leather chypre fragrance with dominant notes of leather and papyrus.

Two years ago, Jovoy founder François Henin asked Zarokian to accompany him on a trip to the Middle East to find an idea for a new fragrance. The story goes that they sampled their way through all sorts of beautiful attars, mukhallats and bakhoors, but in Henin’s words, “it all belonged to the world of the Middle East and we did not want to simply copy their ideas.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspiration finally struck while the pair were visiting local friends and enjoying a special, spicy-sweet, tea called Karak tea. The beverage, made from a combination of black tea, cardamom pods, cinnamon, clove, ginger, and sweetened milk, possesses a unique and distinctive aroma. As Zarokian sipped from her cup, the heady floral aroma of frangipani drifted into the room causing her to remark to Henin that the scent of frangipani reminded her of her honeymoon and that one day she hoped to capture its unique aroma in a soliflore composition. A fragrance can sometimes capture a moment in time and it was this moment that Henin and Zarokian sought to preserve in Remember Me.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e75ml eau de parfum spray\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e$210.00\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 ml eau de parfum sample\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e$7.00\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jovoy","offers":[{"title":"75 ml eau de parfum","offer_id":43459417571387,"sku":"SQ6872962","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 ml eau de parfum","offer_id":43459417604155,"sku":"141505001","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/8669\/0107\/files\/rememberme75web.webp?v=1777304141"},{"product_id":"bleu-satin","title":"Bleu Satin • MDCI","description":"\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHouse\u003c\/strong\u003e MDCI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReleased\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfumer \u003c\/strong\u003eCécile Zarokian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance Family \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fumerie.com\/fragrance-families\/fougere\"\u003eFougère\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebergamot, lemon, green notes, jasmine, cassis, watermelon, saffron, leather, woody notes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInspired by Thomas Gainsborough's famous painting The Blue Boy, Bleu Satin is a bright, fresh, fruit-forward scent, sure to appeal to lovers of fruity-green scents everywhere.
