Naki – Extrait de Parfum

PERNOIRE – a Swiss niche perfume label from Basel, founded in 2020 by childhood friends Nico Mannino and Robin Dünner and composed together with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm.

Naki smells fruity-floral and sea-fresh at once – a scent like a summer day by the water. Aldehydes, peach, almond blossom and passionfruit open it bright and fruity, fig leaves, sandalwood and white flowers come together at the heart into a green, floral picture, before osmanthus, white musk, vanilla and a sea breeze settle into a soft, salty-sweet base.

Naki works best in spring and summer and suits the day. The unisex scent feels light and sunny without ever turning saccharine.

What makes Naki special to us is the sea breeze in its base: instead of letting the scent end purely sweet and floral, it brings back a salty freshness that makes the whole picture feel airier.
