The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Balkis by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur, launched in 2003, is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance for women that balances sweet and spicy notes with the warmth of vanilla and coffee. The composition opens with bright fruity accents and rose, creating an initial burst of freshness before settling into a heart of iris and powdery musk. The base notes of warm spices and vanilla lend depth and comfort to this richly layered scent.

How to wear it

One or two sprays on pulse points allow the fragrance to develop gradually. The initial fruity and rose notes are fleeting, so aim for a close-to-skin application to best enjoy the powdery and gourmand base notes that emerge over time.
