The story behind the bottle.
Vincent Ricord launched Electra Gaze in 2022 for Ex Nihilo, a brand known for its avant-garde and refined approach to luxury. This Oriental Floral fragrance opens with bright citrus notes of mandarin orange and bergamot, which give way to the rich complexity of tuberose and jasmine. The heart of this composition is anchored by milk and musk, creating an intriguing lactonic and animalic accord that adds depth and warmth. Electra Gaze is a study in contrasts, where freshness meets sensuality with remarkable grace.
Electra Gaze's lactonic and animalic accords bloom over time, so applying it in layers can enhance its warmth. Two sprays on pulse points will ensure that the base notes of milk and musk are fully appreciated throughout the day.
