The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Bvlgari, Nylaia is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by Alberto Morillas. The composition opens with pink pepper and bergamot, creating a fresh yet spicy contrast that gives way to the heart of iris and jasmine sambac. The base notes of ambergris, white musk, and vanilla envelop this floral bouquet in a warm, powdery embrace. This fragrance embodies the elegance and sophistication for which Bvlgari is known.

How to wear it

For best effect, apply Nylaia to pulse points. The pink pepper top note is bright but fleeting, while the base of ambergris and vanilla develops slowly over time, making it perfect for an evening out.
