The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1995, Nilang by Lalique is an Oriental Floral fragrance created by perfumer Gérard Anthony. The composition opens with the fresh and aquatic notes of water lily and freesia, which give way to a heart of narcissus and blueberry. The base notes include praline, vanilla, amber, sandalwood, and musk, creating a warm and sweet finish that is both comforting and elegant. This fragrance captures the essence of Lalique’s French heritage, blending crisp freshness with rich warmth.
Apply Nilang sparingly to pulse points — the top notes are vibrant but fade quickly, while the base notes develop slowly over time. This fragrance is best worn during cooler seasons when its warmth can be fully appreciated.
