{"product_id":"secret-du-nil","title":"Secret du Nil – Citrus Gourmand Extrait de Parfum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSecret du Nil by Nectar Olfactif\u003c\/strong\u003e is a unisex, gourmand, vanilla-scented citrus extrait de parfum created by \u003cstrong\u003eSidonie Lancesseur\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its distinctive feature lies in a single construction detail: \u003cstrong\u003ealmond changes state from one layer to the next\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA house inspired by the world of bees\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNectar Olfactif is a French house founded by \u003cstrong\u003eDavid Perrin\u003c\/strong\u003e, a niche perfume and travel enthusiast who has been in the perfume industry for many years. The entire brand is built around a single image: \u003cstrong\u003ethe world of bees foraging on flowers, plants, and fruit trees\u003c\/strong\u003e, and fragrances designed like the nectar they bring back. The formulas are created by perfumers from major fragrance houses—\u003cstrong\u003eRobertet\u003c\/strong\u003e for five of the six, \u003cstrong\u003eCPL Aromas\u003c\/strong\u003e for Cerana—and each bottle bears a golden bee seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of bergamot, bitter orange, and bitter almond\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening plays on bitterness. \u003cstrong\u003eBergamot\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ebitter orange\u003c\/strong\u003e provide a frank, unsweetened citrus, while \u003cstrong\u003ebitter almond\u003c\/strong\u003e adds its green and slightly medicinal facet, that of the kernel rather than pastry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of orange blossom, neroli, roasted almond, and honey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is where the perfume transforms. Almond returns, but \u003cstrong\u003eroasted\u003c\/strong\u003e this time: it has cooked between the two layers. Orange blossom is present in \u003cstrong\u003etwo forms at once\u003c\/strong\u003e—\u003cstrong\u003eorange blossom\u003c\/strong\u003e in bloom and \u003cstrong\u003eneroli\u003c\/strong\u003e in distillation—and the \u003cstrong\u003ehoney\u003c\/strong\u003e brings its roundness. The heart is the kitchen of the perfume, in the literal sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of vanilla, icing sugar, and cedar\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eicing sugar\u003c\/strong\u003e complete the gourmand progression, while \u003cstrong\u003ecedar\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emusks\u003c\/strong\u003e prevent the finish from becoming syrupy. The wood serves as a safeguard: without it, the perfume would turn into a dessert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house's signature touch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe perfume draws from the Nile, \u003cstrong\u003e“the origin of whose source remains a mystery”\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the fertile land it made possible. The house links it to an ancient Egyptian custom: \u003cstrong\u003ethe bee was a royal symbol, and its honey was a drink for newlyweds—hence the expression “honeymoon”\u003c\/strong\u003e. The most subtle idea, however, lies in the formula: \u003cstrong\u003ealmond is used twice, bitter in the opening and then roasted in the heart\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is not a repetition, but a cooking process. Secret du Nil belongs to \u003cstrong\u003eOpus N° 1\u003c\/strong\u003e, the house's first series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, and for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who love gourmand fragrances that begin with bitterness rather than sweetness. It is a mid-season fragrance, wearable day or night, warm without being heavy. Nectar Olfactif's Secret du Nil will appeal to those seeking a carefully crafted almond rather than a pastry accord.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NECTAR OLFACTIF","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":54415004369160,"sku":"PROD-000828","price":180.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/secret-du-nil.jpg?v=1783491596","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/secret-du-nil","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
