Paradis Nuit

I have heard Sebastian, The Perfume Guy, talking towards the end of 2024 about this brand very positively and two days ago I’ve seen some 50 ml bottles of Paradis Nuit on the shelves in a local store. Being curious about Bastille Paris, I have bought a bottle and I think I have found my soapy scent. Unlike some other soapy scents, Paradis Nuit doesn’t smell like cheap soap, very laundry like and sharp, but it’s warm, honeyed floral, with a very pronounced woody backbone. I genuinely believe that the mix of cocoa pod, acacia and patchouli are the saving grace for this soapy perfume. About two years ago I have blind bought Milano Fragranze’s Naviglio, which turned out to be a failed blind buy. It has, like Paradis Nuit, soap, neroli, petit grain but it smells really cold, cheap and very laundry like. Maybe it’s the lavender or the vetiver but I don’t enjoy wearing Naviglio... Paradis Nuit is soo much better, it’s more complex, smells niche, but very beautiful and balanced, has some contrast between the soapy notes, the warm florals, the soft woods, clean, fresh patchouli. I don’t know what hay does to a perfume, but I don’t mind it here. It’s blended nicely with the rest of the notes. Paradis Nuit is the first scent I have bought in 2025 and it’s an instant love. Smells unlike anything in my collection!

A beautiful soapy, thick, powdery, creamy, fluffy gentle fragrance that lasts and lasts... Very soft but not weak! It reminds me a lot of something, but I don't know what, I even consulted with a perfume colleague and she said the same. We can't figure out exactly what it associates us with (which is also a good sign). A very special fragrance that I personally like, I am 35 years old, a completely straight guy, and I think this is a wonderful, charming unisex fragrance for both sexes. Very likeable and my personal favorite along with Bataille. This perfume is so dreamy and harmonious that the name Paradise in the title really suits it. Lovely! For my nose, it would be ideal for spring and autumn. Rainy autumn with leaves, a walk in the park or forest... Spring, Saturday morning routine, coffee on the terrace...or something similar. Winter ? Maybe why not, a sweater and a fireplace and some kind of warm dessert or chestnuts with whipped cream. For summer, I think it would be too much..

An incredibly unique scent, the cacao and soap do not clash at all but are beautifully brought together by the white flowers which are not at all overpowering. While it is a very clean scent I agree with some of the previous posts: this is not an office scent. It's rather sensual - in a cozy way. It's an evening in with a loved one, or a big breakfast with a hot drink on a rainy fall day after a steamy shower. I adore this and am already looking forward to bringing this out in the fall again.

Beautiful soapy scent. Comforting and clean. The addition of the cocoa makes it soft and gentle unlike most soapy fragrance that can be harsh and assertive. I have over 100 bottle of perfumes and nothing smells quite like this so it's another win from Bastille. Worth a big bottle since this is easy to wear and longevity is great. It's a skin scent but lasts a while. I adore how it makes you smell clean and inviting.

I am going to be very upfront about this fragrance. This is very erotic. It smells like a wet towel your lover dried their body with, left outside in the sun. It has a faint, corporeal vibe to it. Far from dirty or animalic, but it’s there and it’s noticeable. Longevity could be better, but it is very beautiful. My favourite from this brand.
