The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024 by Aaron Terence Hughes, Belle de Nuit is a fragrance that balances the lush sweetness of fruits with the opulent richness of vanilla and tonka. The composition opens with notes of rose and sweet orange, which seamlessly transition into peach and nectarine, creating a vivid, sun-ripened bouquet. This fruity warmth is then anchored by the powdery elegance of iris and sandalwood, while ambergris adds an enigmatic depth that lingers on the skin.
Apply Belle de Nuit to pulse points for a lasting warmth. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so rely on the base notes of vanilla and ambergris to carry the fragrance throughout the evening. This scent reads best close to skin rather than filling a room.
