The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2009, F for Fascinating Night by Salvatore Ferragamo is a chypre floral fragrance crafted by perfumer Olivier Polge. This composition opens with the bright zest of pink pepper and mandarin orange, leading into a heart of rose and jasmine that feels both familiar and refined. The base notes of musk, patchouli, and amber create an enveloping warmth, grounding the fragrance in a soft, spicy embrace.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for an intimate scent experience. The citrus top notes will fade within two hours, but the musky base notes will linger longer on skin. It’s best suited for nighttime or evening wear when you want a warm, enveloping aroma.
