Perfume brief
Velours de Nuit N°10 immerses you in the vibrant, intoxicating atmosphere of Shanghai’s grand ballrooms in the 1930s. Close your eyes… let your imagination lead the way. You are there. The jazz orchestra swells with the iconic melody of Helen Forrest’s Night over Shanghai. In the warm, almost electric air, the peppery, hypnotic haze of cigar smoke mingles with the fruity nuances of fine spirits, while sensual notes drift through the night, steeped in mystery and desire. Velours de Nuit N°10 captures this rare alchemy: a suspended moment in time, poised between elegance, decadence, and the intoxicating thrill of the senses...
