Nudo Exotic Flowers

Nudo Exotic Flowers delivers a surprisingly faithful take on the cherry‐tobacco warmth of Narcotic Delight, capturing much of its boozy, spiced character. The opening leans into that familiar cherry‐liqueur accord - slightly less juicy and plush than the Initio original, but recognisably in the same family. As it settles, the cinnamon‐nutmeg spice blend rises through the composition, echoing the structure of Narcotic Delight’s heart with impressive accuracy. The base leans a touch sweeter, with a more pronounced vanilla, yet the tobacco and woods keep it grounded. Overall, it lands at roughly an 85% similarity to the original’s profile. For its price bracket, the performance is genuinely commendable. Where Narcotic Delight comfortably pushes past the 8‐hour mark, Nudo Exotic Flowers offers a solid 6–7 hours of wear. Projection is moderate, not as forceful as Initio’s version, but still noticeable for the first 2–3 hours before softening into a closer‐to‐skin aura. The most noticeable deviation is in the opening: Nudo’s cherry note has a slightly more synthetic edge, though this smooths out as it dries down. The base is also less complex, offering a simpler tobacco accord without the layered nuance of the original. Still, for most wearers, especially once fully settled on skin, these differences are subtle and unlikely to disrupt the overall Narcotic Delight impression. I would suggest that Alexandria Fragrances Dark Knight gets slightly closer, but there's not much in it.

I have not smelled Narcotic Delights so I can only review this fragrance as a tobacco fragrance. I really like tobacco note in fragrance as I find it quite mysterious, sexy and very out of the box, niche. I'd have been wanting to buy a dupe of TF Tobacco Vanille until I came across this. And unlike other I find the bottle absolutely stunning. Maybe the colour could have been more suitable. At first spray you smell a lot of red fruit with loads of tobacco and a small touch of cognac. It's very well blended and very soothing. Feels like you're in a tobacco shop bland smell the tobacco in cigars while you're drinking a bottle of red fruit syrup. Later on the tobacco is way less prominent and the red fruits is less sweet but enriched with spices. The sillage is good for the first few hours. Longetivity is about 7 hours of skin scent. This is a very unique fragrance because they manage to have a tobacco fragrance that leans way more feminine than masculine and I love that. Overall I rate it 8/10. ✨

Just received it a week ago, bought it after testing Narcotic Delight (ND) a couple of times. While that one wowed me every time I tested it, unfortunately that wow factor was lacking when first spraying Nudo Exotic Flowers (NEF). It was way more linear and lacked the richness of ND which made it so addicting. The Drydown of it was full of Rum, a soft cherry and Vanilla. NEF had some cherry and vanilla blended very linearily. BUT after having it one week it developed into being a bit richer! I feel it wants to become more and trying to live up to it. So my anticipation is there and this alone made me giving it a love rating. I'll will give an update after about 6 weeks.

This is undeniably unisex, and my top favorite of the Nudo collection. It is hard for me to find peppery scents that I like, and I love this one. It is spicy in the right ways. The blend of spice with the tobacco and red fruits is very smooth and enjoyable. This one gets a little sweeter as the tobacco and vanilla come out in dry down. This is one I would call a good "hugging perfume." Think sweater weather for this one. In the summer heat and humidity, I suspect the tobacco and vanilla would overshadow any other note. If you are looking for a fun, smooth, spicy unisex scent that isn't too "sexy," then I highly recommend this. And who doesn't love the cute bottle?!

Firts impression: Oh my god do I hate the bottle but LOVE the scent. I can almost pick up on all the notes listed, but mostly red fruits (or cherry), booze and tobacco. I rarely like straight up cherry, they often smell too artificial and candy like, but in this it just brings out a nice sweetness and dark fruityness. From my own collection this reminds me a little bit of Mohra, but Mohra is more masculine, dry and spicy without the dark fruits. To me they are in the same family, might share some of the spices but take the scent profile to different directions.

I can’t see how somebody could like Narcotic Delight but not like this lol. Personally, I may even prefer this over the OG since the cherry/raspberry fruit is more noticeable. I have a cool empty decant bottle otw to swap the juice over out of that horrendous purse bottle though. Update 2 months later: Still a love. Excellent performance and still wildly close to Narcotic Delight. This is a hidden gem.

Heavily underrated! If people didn’t compare it with the OG it would have way higher rates. It’s unique, it’s long lasting, compliment getter. The only thing is that it needs some time to macerate.

I have Nudo on the left and Narcotic delight on the right and what I can smell side by side its a 1:1 clone of ND you really get the cherry & tobacco notes from this . Will buy another backup.

This stuff is good! Love at first sniff, the bottle does not match the scent at all IMO, but I take that for granted if a frag smells like this🎁

Yes the bottle is wrong for what’s inside but anyway can’t stop sniffing myself 🙏🏼its sooo sexy and very very well done dupe for ND

Soooo good, I think I need a backup bottle 😍

Nose Note #533 It's interesting and beautiful. But berry and tobacco don't make the most feminine scent. It has a more than mildly sweet berry note and slight vanilla that make it feminine, but otherwise it's almost unisex. So definately "more feminine", but some men could probably rock it. I tried and almost felt OK. Strong player. Only for colder seasons. Not super niche, I think most people would find it pleasing. I'd like to compare it to French Avenue After Effect (another Initio dupe) which to much more niche and not for everyone at all. This one is rather easy to wear, but in A/C conditions or colder days. 7.5/10, tobacco made feminine

Yup, Narcotic Delight. Almost exact, except the tobacco note is a lot punchier and more prominent in Narcotic Delight, which I personally do not like as much. This, for me, is more wearable. The scent bubble is close range (from a 2 day old bottle, that is). It lasted through a shower. Definitely worth the pick up if you're into ND. Definitely not a feminine fragrance. Don't let that bottle fool you - this belongs in the collection right along side Vintage Radio, Infini Rose, and After Effect to complete the inexpensive Initio-inspired fragrances.

Turn up the volume on the red fruits and turn down the tobacco as the dupe. I prefer the original which makes me want to keep smelling my arm when that dry down goes into effect. This is very nice but it misses the mark with the depth of the OG. It's 80% of the way.

Oh boy, nope ! Like cheap cough syrup, we try again in few weeks

I love handbags and this cute bottle, coupled with the price was a winner. The juice inside the bottle reminds me of grape soda from back in the day. Maybe the fragrance gets better with age, but so far, it's a no for me. Maybe on skin it's better or maybe the perfume needs to age, but right now, it's just a cute bottle. Anyone interested in buying this from me, please reach out. I have the black roginal box too.

The bottle says ‘I’m a girly girl’. The juice says ‘I have transitioned’. One spray and I’m ready to tell stories from my captain years in the Indian Ocean as I’m smoking my pipe and drinking cheap brandy while outside it’s pouring cats and dogs. Maybe it needs more time to macerate because I just bought it. Like a century more.

The bottle, oh the bottle. I love handbags and this bottle just does it for me. The fragrance is sweet and smells like pineapple, vanilla and berries. The pineapple note isn't a favorite. But, this scent may grow on me. 🍍

i really really love narcotic delight so i had my hopes extremely high initial spray, if someone were to ask me what the fragrance was a clone of, i would have no idea im not saying its bad, its a really good fragrance, but initially it does not smell that much like narcotic delight you still get that sweetness from the cognac and berries but also the spiciness from the tobacco, but its very linear and not that similar to ND that being said, this was the first few sprays after just getting it, imma wait for a few weeks and if it gets closer to ND imma let you know

Wow. Am I the only one who thinks this bottle is cute? Y’all would be saying something different if this was released by Hermes or LV. I had no idea this was Paris Corner. I just saw it was in the smells like Narcotic Delight list and I have Narcotic Delight and wanted to list Sirene as smelling like ND. I will say it does not match the vibe though.

Once again FW brings us the newest fragrance with incredible quality and accuracy. Initio’s Narcotic Delight !!!

Just why they decided to confirm this bottle design for such awaited fragrance dupe, just... why :(

Does anyone get cherry in this? Cause it's in narcotic delight's notes

Not enough tobacco and depth with this one.
