The story behind the bottle.
Musc Infini by Ex Nihilo, launched in 2014 and crafted by Louise Turner, is a fragrance that embodies the house’s commitment to refinement and innovation. This Oriental composition opens with a bright blend of Calabrian bergamot and grapefruit, which quickly gives way to the warmth of ambrette (musk mallow), patchouli, and white musk. The base notes of benzoin, vanilla, and tonka bean provide a rich, powdery texture that lingers softly on the skin.
Musc Infini has a long-lasting base that blooms over time. Apply it lightly for a more nuanced effect throughout the day; it’s particularly suited to evening wear when its warmth can be fully appreciated.
