L'Interdit Nocturnal Jasmine

I reach for this little beauty consistently as my perfume choice. The Jasmine is stunning and it works well in all weathers - here in cold Scotland and, more recently, as my tropical holiday scent. The performance is decent - it lingers in my surroundings for a good few hours, people can smell it without it being in their face, and the scent profile remains pretty linear throughout. It makes me feel feminine and powerful. The jasmine is wonderfully floral but the patchouli brings out a lovely depth. I’m a big fan of the L’Interdit line, although I seem to have all of them except the OG, so I can’t compare it to that. This is limited edition so I’ve bought a couple of back-up bottles so I’m not disappointed when it disappears from shelves. This little bottle brings me great joy.

The most beautiful Jasmin out there. For such a beatiful and ubiquitous note, I am often disappointed by the renditions of some perfumers. Malle's are flat, Serge Lutens uninteresting, Le Labo too plain...this one is a masterpiece. It evoques a Jasmin that is mysterious and intoxicating, "nocturnal" suits it very well, it brings the other floral notes of L'interdit to the fore, it illuminates them. It's so absolutely beautiful and complex without becoming too much. Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Shame that this is a limited edition.

I really like this - intoxicating jasmine notes that just get richer and deeper on the dry down. Highly recommend trying on skin as it definitely came alive there (testing on paper doesn’t do it justice). It’s a warm summer day here in Australia and this is performing really well. It’s got good sillage without being overpowering. I’m not getting straight patchouli on the dry down - on my skin at least it’s almost a vanilla note with the vetiver keeping it fresh and not overly sweet. Just lovely!

Smells just like I remember it.....I used to live in California, LA to be exact and in the warm evenings I use to smell the night blooming jasmine and this smells exactly the same! Love it! I’ve searched far and wide for this smell! Brings back memories of my time in California. I’ve smelled so many jasmine scents to find this one is the beat! Please bring it back DO NOT discontinue. Highly recommended if you like L”interdit and jasmine! More jasmine than anything else! 100/10!

L'Interdit Nocturnal Jasmine is one of my favourite perfumes and one of the most beautiful realistic jasmines that I have smelled. It has the DNA of the original but it is lighter and fresher, and reminds me of jasmine tea (my favourite). It's a high quality perfume and while the longevity and sillage are average, the scent is incredible and a wonderful mood booster. To me this is magic in a bottle :-)
