The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Carre d'As by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur was launched in 1995 as a bold aromatic fougère for men. This composition opens with an invigorating blend of lavender, lime, and mint, bringing a fresh spicy and green aroma that immediately captures attention. The heart notes of lemon blossom, thyme, caraway, and spices add depth and complexity, while the woody base of hay, woods, and tobacco grounds it in warmth and earthiness. Carre d'As is a fragrance that balances sharpness with richness, making it both invigorating and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply Carre d'As lightly to let its top notes shine through, as they are particularly bright. The woody base develops slowly over time, so it's best worn during cooler hours or in a setting where you can appreciate its gradual evolution.
