Retro darkness

It is a surprising perfume of which one imagines something different if you read the notes before smelling it.
It is a kind of dark fougere that would identify a Central European Renaissance vampire.
Although they smell different, it brought to mind an old well-known designer perfume such as Antaeus by Chanel.
It is very elegant and mysterious, dark and with a gloomy touch. There will be those who say that it is a retro, classic, old smell... and yes, it may be, but it has an interesting essence with a certain point of cleanliness and meatiness.
Unfortunately the performance is insufficient to be a true lord of the night, really is not enough to go beyond a fleeting appearance around midnight.

A mossy and vintage take on conifers

I am referring to prototype of Nocturnis, which may be different than the current shape, formula of the scent.

I definitely can tell it’s got an oldschool green 70’s twist to it. I could tell it smells like a predecessor of Fanghorn, Fanghorn II and Murkwood. A lot of chypre accents, a lot of (oak)moss in there.

I was wearing Nocturnis and for comparison purpose I sprayed Fanghorn II.
If I didn't own FII I would buy Nocturnis right away. To me it's definitely a sibling of Fanghorn II, possibly might be named somewhere similar. Of course there are lots of differences.
Fanghorn II is mossy and quite juicy.
Nocturnis is sort of tobacco-ish and leathery (both just slightly addded in a VERY smart way). Definitely dry.
Nocturnis explores unknown regions - Nick is very talented and can do a lot more, I believe. For now I am wondering wether I'd want a bottle of Nocturnis or not.
I'd say, if any Pineward is the closest one to Slumberhouse Norne, it would be Nocturnis. Both Fanghorn/II and Murkwood are standalone scents, independent, unique and individual "entities" compared to it.

Generally:
Dark, broody forest - Nocturnis
Dark, broody forest with soil and swamps (and swampy aromas in general) - Fanghorn II
Dark, broody forest with smoke, incense, myrrh and like a campfire lit in the middle of the forest - Murkwood.
Each of those is unique, but to me Murkwood and Fanghorn II are slightly more unique than Nocturnis is.

I'd recommend anyone comparing directly Nocturnis with Fanghorn II.

Nocturnis is dark, broody, evil. A little smoky too! Additionally with patch and tobacco.
FII is swampy, full of soil.

Definitely on my skin Nocturnis has vintage vibes. A lot of oakmoss, in the late base what is left reminds me of cigarette ash, cigarette smoke and very little faint traces of conifers.

I'd say Nocturnis along with Murkwood present the darkest forms of conifer nature. On my skin Fanghorn II is a wee brighter. Both three are excellent -I have not tested Brokilan yet.

Longevity is out of this world, 11+ hours. Sillage is over moderate level.

Conclusion: Nocturnis is way more complex than I thought.

original twist

I agree with whom has previously reviewed. It's definitely something unusual ,like walking onto a different path to a new direction: a flowery lawn.
its a blast of chamomile, geranium( a bit too much), lavender ,carnation in the opening , then warm tobacco , a little hay and hearty patchouly as base notes .We can still tell its Pinewood by a pine-ish balsamic background very very tamed and very well rounded up.
Not one of my favorite but very pleasing in the overall.

Pine-led, with geranium, chamomile, sap

Sampling Pineward Perfumes Nocturnis, a 2022 release that’s very much in the spirit of the house, a pine-forward scent with notable hints of geranium, chamomile, hay, and tobacco. It’s sharp via the chamomile and geranium, almost minty, but there are hints of sap in the background as well, with some of the animalic funk of hay. It ends up feeling fairly balanced among the pine, sap, and more provocative elements, with a slight resinous touch throughout. Much like most of the catalogue, it strikes me as a well-conceived, completed product, even if not among my very favorites of the line. I’d certainly recommend that others check this out.

Its high performance and reasonable (in my opinion) pricing is consistent with the rest of the line, at $205/135/80 for 57/37/17ml, fair for indie perfumery with good density / longevity and high quality.
