Exotic and nice

This is a very interesting fragrance that i would say it's very challenging and unusual.

The oakmoss is very present here, from beginning to the end.

Besides the oakmoss, this fragrance opens with a nice herbal note wich reminds me of grass and/or black tea. Then joins the party a great floral note (maybe orange flower?).

In the drydown there's a surprising smoky note around that remains untill the fragrance fades out. Also i can smell a light woody base, that's probably the source of the smokiness.

Sillage and projection are low. Lasting power is great, around 8 hours easily.

Unissex in my opinion.

Lush / Devil's Nightcap

For me, it is the smell of a smoky and veeery green forest, and more specifically smoky moss, herbs, ferns and all low and dense green growing next to each other. From the beginning to the end you can feel both green (especially oakmoss) and delicate, interesting smoke. In addition, there are wood notes somewhere, and the very beginning of the fragrance for me is brightened with some citrus. For me, this is the best LUSH fragrance.
Durability very good - about 8-10 hours for me. Greaaaat !!!

into the oak forest

The multilayered medicinal herbiness of this scent isn't something I would reach for that often, but it is wonderfully evocative when I do. It makes me think of camping in an old-style canvas tent, the kind that stays a little bit musty no matter how well you air it out. Dried, crunchy leaves from a variety of trees cover the forest floor around your tent. It's a bit smoky but, rather than a campfire, it's more the smoke from a well-worn tobacco pipe. My father always had a pipe hanging from his mouth for the first 14 years of my life. When he was at home, he would often set it down in a large ashtray made from an unfinished, hollowed-out piece of oak tree. Devil's Nightcap brings back to me that cold tobacco ash in a well-worn pipe in an oak ashtray, and makes me sad and wistful. At times, there are also hints of hay and cough syrup and hops, and this reminds me of Slumberhouse Sova.

This scent takes me on a beautiful olfactory journey through so many varieties of plant life, but ultimately my associations with it are too sad for me to want to wear it often. Those who didn't grow up with that particular pipe tobacco and oak smell will probably feel otherwise.

Pan stuffs his pipe with sage

Whatever devil is drinking this nightcap before bed has got some impeccable taste. I imagine him sitting in his goateed glory, pipe in hand, sage and other herbs smoking in the stummel, a jazz record playing in the background. This perfume is so intoxicating to my senses! I keep passing by the LUSH store near my house just to spritz this on, and then the rest of my day just picks up from there. Smoky, green spices and that accidental frangipani note like a chromatic inflection just popping out of nowhere, so wrong and oh so right! I want this, but it only comes in the 100ml bottles and it's a heck of a steep price that I just can't bring myself to pay. Why am I such a Scrooge...

Handsome Devil

"Devil's Nightcap" was inspired by a mysterious megalith that, according to folklore, the devil himself is said to have thrown to destroy Corfe Castle in Dorset, and after its discovery, it was attributed magical powers by druids.

Indeed, "Devil's Nightcap" has an archaic scent: dark, strong, woody, earthy, bitter, with a slightly bitter spice, herbal. At the very beginning, there is a very faint lemony freshness that beautifully complements the green aspect of the fragrance; at this stage, I like the scent the most. I also think I perceive a hint of mint. For the top notes, I would give an additional ten percent in the rating.

Furthermore, the blend is brightened by ylang-ylang and orange blossom, with the former ingredient being distinctly more noticeable, yet not dominant. Later on, the fragrance becomes softer, almost a bit powdery, and a subtle mossy floral quality emerges.

I find it to be a very dark green scent with grounding qualities, connected to nature, yet without smelling like pure essential oils.

"Devil's Nightcap" is indeed an extreme fragrance, but it still lacks the challenge that, for example, "The Bug" by Lush has; instead, "Devil's Nightcap" is more straightforward, but by no means boring. It radiates an introverted beauty and is for all romantics for whom romance means something different than kitsch.

Conservative minds would probably assign "Devil's Nightcap" more to men, but I reject such confusing classifications; everyone should simply let their nose decide. In any case, I find the scent very appealing.

Lush describes this fragrance as "Devilishly Intoxicating," definitely very alluring...
