Sex in a bottle

Hello dear community,

I have now been regularly wearing the EdP version of the much-loved La Nuit series for several months and would like to share my experience and opinion with you.

When I started to delve deeper into this hobby at the beginning of the year, I, like most people, stumbled upon the La Nuit series. In particular, I wanted to try the highly praised original version of the EDT. It was hyped by well-known YouTubers, which made me curious. So, I went to a large department store and immediately looked for the YSL shelves... After finding all the La Nuits, I grabbed the EdT and sprayed it on my wrist... First thought: “Phew, this is kind of musty and not for me at all...” [...] “Never mind, it’s just the top note, wait a bit...,” I thought.
(It is said that the older batches cannot be compared to the new ones; I cannot confirm or comment on this, as I have never smelled the old batches...).

A few bottles later, I noticed another bottle, red-black, same bottle style, same lettering, but Eau de Parfum... “Oh, the same as EdP? I have to test this right away!” I thought.
I immediately took the bottle in hand and sprayed it on my other wrist “Wow, this is intense! And damn sexy!” [...] Yes, with the EdP, I immediately had that wow effect that the EdT didn’t give me...

So the first impression was amazing! To test the longevity, sillage, and development of the EdP, I sprayed myself with 4-5 sprays and spent some time outside...
About 3 hours later, when I got home, I greeted my partner and her comment was: “What do you have on this time? It smells and practically calls for sex... xD [...].

Well, the scent had already blown me away from the start, but this compliment finally convinced me to make a purchase. So I searched online for a good price and found one. Thus, I ordered the large 100ml bottle...
A few days later, I went to a restaurant for a team dinner with my colleagues... When I hugged the female colleagues to greet them, one said with a wink: “Mmm, so who are you trying to pick up today? You smell very attractive.” [...]

After a few weeks of wearing it, I noticed that it doesn’t necessarily project a huge scent cloud, meaning the sillage is rather mediocre. But the longevity is all the better; on my skin, it lasts a strong 8-9 hours! I even sprayed it on my wrist again last night before going to bed and could still perceive it well after waking up.

The scent opens refreshingly and spicy, the grapefruit stands out right from the opening and instantly lifts your mood. The cardamom stays a bit subdued but still gives it the exotic spice for a masculine touch. After a while, I perceive the lavender; although it doesn’t belong to my favorite notes (at least so far), it adds a pleasant - and fitting to the grapefruit - additional freshness to the scent. As it develops, it becomes fruity or honey-sweet (that’s how I perceive it); it could and should be the absolute... In the dry-down, the sandalwood brings this sensually warm, oriental flair that I really like. The patchouli and vetiver also make the scent earthy and woody-herbaceous, which contributes to its long-lasting nature. Overall, this EdP has a very dynamic development, which I really enjoy.

I also let a few buddies smell the scent... The consensus among them: “This is a scent for one-night stands...” :D
[...]

Conclusion:
As mentioned above, this scent does not have what you would call monster sillage; you have to get close to smell it. But on the skin, it is all the more intense. And I think that’s intentional. I didn’t even care about the EDT anymore, as the EdP convinced me so much. This is truly a very attractive, sensual, and erotic scent that, despite a minimal synthetic quality, is very seductive to women... Regarding the seasons, I think you can wear it in every season except high summer (it would be way too strong for me then). But rather in the evening; I see it less during the day...
You should give it a chance, as I think it really smells incredibly sexy, sexy, and once again sexy!
[...].

And I thank everyone as always for reading and wish you all the best!

Best regards

DANKE! Dein Kommentar macht meinen geplanten zwar hinfällig, aber er trifft den Nagel auf dem Kopf! Ich finde den Duft auch genial und mit wesentlich mehr Charakter ausgestattet als den Ur-EDT!

@Salva Das ist gut, dass du das erwähnst! Dazu habe ich auch schon einen Blogartikel geschrieben!

@Felix Danke dir! Ich persönlich finde ja die Komplimente kommen automatisch, wenn man ein offener, zugänglicher und kontaktfreudiger Mensch ist. Wenn man nett und freundlich zu seinen Mitmenschen ist, dann hört man doch mal öfter, dass man gut riecht. Das ist nämlich meine Erfahrung. Und ich selber gebe anderen auch sehr gern oft Komplimente, wenn sie gut duften (oder bspw wenn sie gut und schick gekleidet sind) und frage gar nach, was sie tragen.

Wie immer sehr erfrischender Kommi!
Bei den ganzen positiven Reaktionen von Frauen zu deinen Düften, könntest du ja glatt der neue Jeremy Fragrance werden, der sich von deinem Marketing noch ne Scheibe abschneiden kann ;)
Finde aufjedenfall gut, dass du mich aufmerksam auf gewisse Flanker machst, die man normalerweise gleich als unnötig oder schlecht abwehrt!
Pokal für dich :)

Hm. Wertet Mann das wirklich als "Kompliment" wenn man ihm sagt er rieche als wolle er jemanden abschleppen?
Bei Frauen wär das ja sofort "Nuttendiesel"...
Aber ich mag den tatsächlich auch ganz gerne - an mir :-)

Reißerischer Titel, aber der ist hier erlaubt:) Denn endlich mal ein Kommi, der das Attribut "sexy" mit einer prima Duftbeschreibung und ohne Dumpfbacken-Anzüglichkeit rüberbringt. Hilfreichpokal:)

Die La Nuit Reihe hat mich bislang nicht so recht überzeugt. Aber dank deinem Kommentar gebe ich dem EDP noch einmal eine Chance! Schön geschrieben.
