The story behind the bottle.
Nuit Noor by Elie Saab, launched in 2016 and crafted by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, is a fragrance that encapsulates the warmth of an intimate evening. The composition opens with honeyed sweetness and rose, creating a lush, enveloping effect that draws you closer. As it settles into its heart and base notes, patchouli and amber add depth and complexity, giving way to a richly balsamic finish that lingers long after it’s applied.
Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, one or two sprays are sufficient to make an impression throughout the evening. Let it settle for a few minutes before heading out, as the initial sweetness gives way to a more complex, warm spicy character that truly comes into its own.
