What is a women's perfume at Nicolaï?

At Nicolaï, no fragrance is assigned to women. The house composes for the skin, never for a gender, and each perfume reinvents itself depending on who wears it. This selection brings together the creations that women most readily embrace, from luminous florals to sensual ambers, by way of a few refined gourmands. As many paths in for anyone looking for a niche perfume for women that meets their expectations, without giving up the freedom of an exceptional perfume house.

The emblems of a woman's wardrobe

A few creations readily find their place in a woman's wardrobe. The Intense Eau de Parfum Ambre Cashmere wraps the skin in an amber, powdery softness of muffled sensuality. Number One, the house's very first signature, unfolds a symphony of white flowers, tuberose and jasmine, at once elegant and powerful. The Intense Eau de Parfum Iris Médicis carves the quintessence of elegance around a powdery iris, lifted by orange blossom and vanilla. Fresher, Rose Pivoine reveals a spring-like bouquet of rose and peony, while Saint-Honoré evokes the elegance of Parisian pâtisserie, between orange blossom, hazelnut and vanilla. Finally, the Intense Eau de Parfum Rose Oud blends the opulence of rose with the depth of oud, in a chic, captivating trail.

Explore by olfactory family

Each trail leads back to a family, to refine the search for a women's perfume. Floral compositions render rose, tuberose, or orange blossom with refinement, while amber accords offer a sensual, enveloping warmth. For a sweeter touch, gourmand fragrances play on the roundness of vanilla and creamy notes, and those who love deeper trails will gladly turn to woody perfumes, where even patchouli is worn beautifully by women. For freshness, the citrus family unfolds luminous citrus and sparkling notes.

Finding the right concentration

The format of a women's perfume is chosen according to the intensity you are after. Our Intense Eau de Parfum form the heart of the selection: the richest of all, they leave the most tenacious trails. Lighter and easy to wear every day, Eau de Toilette keeps the character in a more airy reading, while our Eau Fraîche play on the citrus brightness of the opening hours. Cologne extends the great fresh tradition of citrus, while Perfume Extract distills the most precious expression of the house's savoir-faire.

The luxury of substance in a women's perfume

What sets a Nicolaï women's perfume apart owes nothing to the bottle or the label, and everything to the juice. Every formula is created entirely in-house, in our laboratory at the Palais-Royal, under the signature of Patricia de Nicolaï, the first woman perfumer to found her own house. The raw materials rank among the finest in the world of perfumery, often used in overdose for the sheer beauty of the accord, then assembled by hand in France, in the heart of the Cosmetic Valley. This is the very meaning of luxury of substance: luxury fragrances measured by the emotion they leave behind, carried by the heritage of seven generations of perfumers. Also to be discovered for men, in the same creative freedom.
