Spiky Muse Eau de Parfum by Ex Nihilo Paris is a portrait of powerful, creative femininity: bold, artistic and irresistibly addictive. Centered on the timeless beauty of the rose, it reimagines the Queen of Flowers through a contemporary couture lens, blending floral elegance with unexpected gourmand sensuality.
An innovative upcycled strawberry extract, lit by fresh bergamot and pink pepper, opens the composition with sophisticated brightness. Rich rose absolutes bloom alongside a creamy pistachio accord at the heart, forming a captivating floral-gourmand harmony that feels both daring and elegant. A warm base of cedarwood, Akigalawood™, Ambrofix™ and tonka bean adds earthy depth that lingers beautifully on the skin.
Bold and unforgettable, Spiky Muse is a statement fragrance for anyone who wears their creativity and sensuality with confidence. Perfect for evenings, events and any moment you want to be remembered.
