{"product_id":"ex-nihilo-lust-in-paradise-eau-de-parfum-sample","title":"Ex Nihilo Lust in Paradise Eau de Parfum Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eEx Nihilo Lust in Paradise is the brand's portrait of the French Riviera, painted by the perfumer Louise Turner in pink pepper, rose absolute, musk and white cedarwood. It is a floral built to feel like skin warmed by the sun, which is a very personal effect. Wearing a 10 ml decant for a few days will tell you whether it does that on yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Pink Pepper, Rosyfolia™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Petalia™, Rose Absolute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Musk, White Cedarwood, Ambrofix™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA bright, peppery start\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePink pepper gives the opening a dry sparkle, and Rosyfolia™ turns it towards the flowers. This phase is short. It carries the mood of a sunlit afternoon, and what you want to notice is how quickly it hands over to the rose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe rose heart\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePetalia™ and rose absolute make up the heart. The brand talks of a floral waterfall, and the rose absolute gives that rush some depth. Whether this centre feels polished and light or a little too classical is the main thing a sample can settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMusk and cedar skin\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the base, musk, white cedarwood and Ambrofix™ leave a quiet, dry warmth. The cedar keeps it woody and clean, the musk keeps the flowers close to the skin. This is the part you meet when the perfume has settled, and the one that decides if you wear it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eApply it to clean skin after a shower, on the neck and wrists, and try it on a warm, unhurried day first. Compare how it feels in the first minutes with how it sits later, when only the musk and cedar remain. A second test on a cooler day shows how close to the skin it stays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brand lists it as a women's fragrance, and the sample suits anyone curious about a musky rose with wood underneath rather than sugar. If you want a floral that feels polished but not formal, for long lunches or weekends away, this is a fair candidate to try before committing to 100 ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Ex Nihilo Lust in Paradise as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe idea behind it is a place and a mood, and moods are hard to judge from a list of notes. Our 10 ml decant, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us, lets you see if the Riviera picture works on your skin before you take a 100 ml bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich notes are recorded?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePink pepper and Rosyfolia™ on top, Petalia™ and rose absolute in the heart, and musk, white cedarwood and Ambrofix™ in the base. Nothing else is added to that list on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat do I actually receive?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA 10 ml decant in a glass spray vial, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. It is not an official brand sample, and Ex Nihilo is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs it a heavy floral?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot by its description. The brand speaks of sun-drenched afternoons and a lazy mood, with cedarwood and musk keeping it dry and close to the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDoes it suit cooler weather?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a warm, light floral that fits spring and summer, but in cooler weather it simply sits closer to the skin. A test in your own season is the best way to find out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ex Nihilo","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67693372113050,"sku":"DG-ENI-LUST-IN-PARADISE-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67693372145818,"sku":"DG-ENI-LUST-IN-PARADISE-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67693334266010,"sku":"DG-ENI-LUST-IN-PARADISE-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/ex-nihilo-lust-in-paradise-eau-de-parfum-sample.jpg?v=1791395751","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/ex-nihilo-lust-in-paradise-eau-de-parfum-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
