Lust in Paradise is the floral Eau de Parfum from Ex Nihilo composed by Louise Turner, a Givaudan perfumer. The house captures the French Riviera, its sun-drenched afternoons and the whispers of the Mediterranean: pink pepper and Rosyfolia™ at the top, Petalia™ and rose absolute at the heart, musk, white cedar and Ambrofix™ at the base.
The house places pink pepper and Rosyfolia™ at the top, Petalia™ and rose absolute at the heart, and musk, white cedar and Ambrofix™ at the base. It ranks Lust in Paradise among its floral fragrances, with a musky facet.
Peony and lychee
Its story pairs a radiant white peony with pink pepper and describes a floral cascade tinged with lychee, with a fresh and languid glow. A signature of cedar and musk leaves the impression of skin warmed by the sun.
In 2019, CaFleurBon listed peony, lychee and amber among the notes. The house’s current list no longer names them and prefers Rosyfolia™, Petalia™ and rose absolute.
What the label declares
The INCI list declares three colorants, CI 19140, CI 14700 and CI 17200, one yellow and two red, behind the juice’s pale pink tint. Hydroxycitronellal evokes lily of the valley, and citronellol and geraniol are both found in rose essential oil.
