Nel – Extrait de Parfum

KINETIC PERFUMES BARCELONA – a niche perfume label from Barcelona that sees fragrance as kinetic energy: movement, memory and emotion. Nel was composed by Paris-based perfumer Mark Buxton.

Nel smells fruity-floral and cheeky – a rose with thorns. Lychee, apple, geranium, rhubarb and marigold open crisp and juicy, rose, Grasse jasmine, dewberry and magnolia form a pale pink floral picture at the heart, before oakmoss, vanilla, ambergris and cedar settle into a warm, sensual base.

Nel works best in spring and summer and suits the day. The unisex scent feels playful, bold and long-lasting – a statement.

What makes Nel special to us is the tension: sweetness that is allowed to bite. Ambergris runs warm and almost animalic through the whole scent, while fruit and flowers stay crisp, tart and mouth-watering – that's how cheekiness becomes character.
