Nohiba – Extrait de Parfum

L.T. Piver – a Paris perfume house founded in 1774, whose historic formulas are made once again in its own manufacture in Chartres.

Nohiba is dark, warm and ceremonial. Mandarin and cinnamon open bright and spicy, rose, frankincense and leather meet at the heart, before natural vanilla, amber and papyrus settle into a deep, resinous, leathery base.

Nohiba is at its best in autumn and winter and in the evening. This unisex extrait suits special occasions and makes an intense signature scent for anyone who loves vanilla without the sugar coating.

What fascinates us is how Nohiba treats vanilla – not as a dessert, but as a noble raw material with amber, spicy and leathery facets. A formula from 1868, now reissued by L.T. Piver as an extrait de parfum, that wears as if it had been composed yesterday.
