L’Eau Chic by Nicolaï Paris is an elegant light-spicy scent, sparkling and radiant.
Inspired by the pleasant smell of the essence of geranium combined with other ingredients gives this flower a softer glow while remaining its potent self.
Quote Nicolaï Paris: “Un peu de fraîcheur dans un monde si chaud! Avec son accord géranium, menthe, lavande, l’Eau Chic est un geste d’élégance : une fragrance mixte facile à porter, identifiable, d’une bonne tenue.
Ayant toujours aimé l’odeur des gros savons géranium qui trônaient dans la salle de bain de mes parents, mon rêve était d’utiliser l’essence de géranium comme le pivot de ma composition. C’est une essence délicieuse mais dont il faut savoir dompter l’aspect quelque peu râpeux et piquant. Le challenge: l’adoucir sans l’affaiblir, l’habiller sans l’écraser, l’originaliser sans en déguiser la note. Ainsi, les essences de menthe crépue et poivrée associées à la lavande apportent une délicate fraîcheur au géranium Bourbon. Le santal, la camomille romaine et l’iris arrondissent la fragrance qui est légèrement épicée par le clou de girofle et le piment. Un cocktail de muscs blancs renforce la note et lui permet de durer, durer, durer – le temps de tout un été.”

Woody
Woody fragrances are full of character and indeed very woodsy. They can be warm, soothing and creamy, but also dry and spicy. Key ingredients are cedar wood, patchouli, sandalwood and/or vetiver. Oudh (agarwood), Palo Santo and guaiac wood have also joined the perfumer's palet, just like the fantastic synthetics such as Javanol or Iso-E-Super.
