Sun Bleached by Une Nuit Nomade
Floral Aldehyde
Jerome di Marino
Une Nuit Nomade is becoming more and more popular in the niche perfume scene. The brand creates fragrances that are inspired by travel destinations, in particular Oman, Bali and Montauk.
Sun Bleached refers to Muscat, Oman’s city in White. The scent is suitable for a dry hot climate. It has a slightly sweet – vanillic character; with clean and soapy nuances and floral touches. The feeling of white cotton hugging your skin is done with ambrette absolute, linen and white musk.
Sun Bleached performs as a skin scent; therefore, it is advisable to spray generously if you want a bit of power. There is a similarity to Levante by Nobile 1942; however, Sun Bleached is less sweet, unisex and more complex, I would say. There are layers to peel. The opening reminds me of Mojave Ghost by Byredo. They share the same musk mallow. But the dry-down is nothing like Mojave Ghost. It is much better. Sun Bleached is a luxury-smelling sophisticated summer vanilla. Well done!
