The Story

Whiplash by Ex Nihilo, launched in 2024, is a Woody Spicy fragrance that captures the essence of modern refinement. The composition opens with a bright citrus-aromatic blend of orange and bergamot, punctuated by fresh spices like ginger and pepper. This vibrant topnote gives way to a heart of floral warmth, where rose meets cardamom, adding an unexpected layer of complexity. The base notes of ambrette, akigalawood, and patchouli provide a grounding effect, ensuring that the fragrance remains balanced and intriguing throughout the day.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to the pulse points for optimal effect. The vibrant topnotes will last about two hours before giving way to the floral and woody base. This fragrance is best worn during the day when its bright and dynamic character can truly shine.
