Sweet Morphine by Ex Nihilo

This week we have been wearing Sweet Morphine by Ex Nihilo.

Whilst we have all enjoyed wearing it, we did keep thinking we could smell a mixture of medicine and flowers.  Imagine Calpol bottle hidden in a bouquet and you’ll have Sweet Morphine to a T.

With hefty floral notes of lilac, iris, mimosa (our aroma of the week), heliotrope and rose the floral is strong and obvious, unlike the bergamot that gets a nano-second of enjoyment as the perfume is sprayed.

The perfume settles nicely and the floral Calpol is softened by vanilla, vetiver and patchouli giving it an almost creamy woody flourish as it fades.

If you like lilac, then this is definitely one you should try.  If you don’t like lilac but enjoy other florals then try this one too.  It is silky and well-mannered sitting on the skin in an attentive fashion without trying to steal the limelight.
