The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020 and crafted by Francis Kurkdjian and Jérôme di Marino, Exalt Nuit by Navitus Parfums is a captivating Oriental Spicy fragrance that balances warmth with a touch of spice. The composition begins with the rich aroma of cacao and bergamot, creating an intriguing contrast between sweetness and freshness. Nutmeg and olibanum add layers of complexity to this opening, leading into a heart filled with jasmine and anise. The base notes of tobacco, cedar, and Haitian vetiver ground the scent, giving it a smoky and woody finish that lingers throughout the day.

How to wear it

Apply Exalt Nuit in moderation — its complexity allows it to build on skin over time. The cacao and bergamot notes are quick to fade, so ensure you layer enough for the woody and spicy base to shine through. This fragrance reads better close to the skin rather than diffusing into a room.
