The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Pavlova by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur is a Floral Fruity fragrance that launched in 2024, crafted by Patricia de Nicolai. The composition opens with the vibrant sweetness of pineapple and passionfruit, leading to a heart of rum and peach that adds depth and warmth. This is balanced by coconut and raspberry notes before settling into a base of vanilla, sandalwood, cedar, and musk. It’s a scent that captures the essence of a tropical indulgence, blending fruity freshness with creamy sweetness.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The fruity top notes are bright but fleeting, so let it settle before you head out. This fragrance works best in warmer weather when its tropical elements can fully shine.
