Cologne 352 by Ex Nihilo is a fresh aromatic fragrance created by Jacques Huclier in 2014. The composition opens with the invigorating zest of Italian lemon and juniper berries, followed by a heart of lily-of-the-valley and orange blossom that brings an ethereal floral quality. This contrast gives way to a warm woody base of white cedar extract and guaiac wood, anchored by musky undertones.
Ex Nihilo is known for its avant-garde approach to luxury perfumery, and Cologne 352 embodies this ethos with its modern take on classic citrus and floral notes. The fragrance strikes a balance between freshness and warmth, making it suitable for both day and night.

Application Tips
Start with one or two sprays to allow the citrus top notes to fully bloom before the woody base settles in. Cologne 352's fresh aromatic profile works best during cooler weather, where it can cut through without becoming too overpowering.

The story behind the bottle.
The brisk clarity of a morning walk through a misty forest, where the crispness of lemon and juniper is softened by the subtle floral notes of lily-of-the-valley.
