Sun Bleached Extrait de Parfum

This smells soooo good. I’m obsessed with clean scents and this one was a love from first sniff. I do not know what the original smelled like so I can’t compare but this one is gorgeous and really does give the impression of sun bleached linen. It’s solar, textured, crisp and clean. Heavy on the linen and ambrette notes, floral, slightly sweet. The myrrh is there but it doesn’t overpower which I was happy about because that’s not a note I enjoy in excess. This is a new favorite fragrance of mine, definitely one I’m going to be wearing a lot of this summer. It has great performance, projects well for many hours leaving a good sillage, lasts a long time on skin and clings to clothes for days.

Such a gorgeous, warm, creamy and comforting scent. Very unique yet easy to wear. For me, I smell a slight sun tan lotion vibe with the sweetness of the myrrh. I don’t really get laundry drying in the sun. On my skin this actually gives off a chocolate vibe. An instant love.

Sun Bleached Extrait is stunning. I love the original and this one is the creamier and longer lasting version. Really nice. I was scared because of the tuberose, but it is so beautifully done here it just translates to my nose as creamy, comforting, sweet, clean. Love it!

Une Nuit Nomade have outdone themselves yet again- this is an absolutely stunning fragrance. I’m so pleased because this was a blind buy and it’s quite dissimilar to the OG. I find it very comforting.

I love the edp and I adore the extrait now 💙 Just imagine a freshly washed laundry hanging out under the sun next to the sea 🧺 🌊 The ultimate clean summer fragrance.

I have trouble with most “clean” scents turning papery or wood chippy on me but not this one. A true fresh linen scent that is beautiful and crisp. The EDP is softer whereas this elevates and keeps things strong yet soft. I don’t get much floral notes at all, it’s mostly musky clean vibes. I really enjoyed my sample and may get a full bottle.

Une Nuit Nomade is one of my favorite perfume houses, so I was especially curious about Sun Bleached Extrait. On my skin, it opens with a sweet laundry effect—white musk, old-style floral detergent, and powdery aldehydes. In theory, this should be exactly my kind of fragrance with the ambrette, vanilla, cardamom, and white musk. Yet, as it develops, it takes on a humid, slightly animalic quality that reminds me of freshly washed white linens stored in an old house that has quietly aged with time. It shares a similar mood with 😔 Alegría by Villa Erbatium, but Sun Bleached goes much further into that aged, powdery direction. (musti)

I was so excited to try this one, but unfortunately it reminds me of an old lady's bathroom—you know, the kind with porcelain cats everywhere.

Love the EDP but not the extrait. Something really bothers me. It’s so musky it’s overwhelming, and so strong it hurts my nostrils. Really recommend sampling it and spraying on the skin. Absolutely not blind buy safe even if you love the EDP!

I got a sample for testing - I hate this one.. I clean my floor with a product, which smells the same, so for me is a big no-no. I adore the Une Nuit Nomade fragrances, but this one is not for me.

First let me say this is very, very intense... a scent that's hard to handle. I blind bought the travel size because I love the EDP, but I found it far sweeter than I'd expected. This sweetness meets the bubblegummy feel of tuberose, and joins with a minty freshness and a strong clean sheets feel. There's also an ongoing chalky, dense, almost sticky powdery musk in the scent. It's as if the auntie next door overdid the concentrated fabric softener while doing her laundry, and even after rinsing, those clothes reek of white flowers and aldehydes! This comparison aside, it's also something creamy. Because of its aldehydic structure, it spreads and spreads and forms a huge white cloud around you. Even though that tiring sweetness at the start settles a little, the bubblegum feel stays, and for some reason it even has a smell resembling those old, melting, pink baby aspirins. Now for the complicated part: my husband likened it to the leftover remnant of an After Eight, the minty chocolate. Yet neither the note pyramid nor the notes account for those chocolates. Nor the theme... When I looked into this a bit, I read that the minty feel could come from tuberose and the chocolatey feel from ambrette + myrrh... I don't really get that vibe, but it goes to show the scent is polarizing. Unlike in the EDP, there's no atmosphere of wet laundry hung out to dry under the sun with a breeze puffing through it. Do they resemble each other, maybe.. but this is in a whole different lane. In the drydown there's a more "cooling" laundry effect. I wasn't too taken with the opening, but the ending didn't leave me unhappy either. Tag(s): bubblegummy, powdery, aldehydic, clean, minty, creamy
