About Nocturne
Nocturne by Cygnet Perfumery: A Midnight Leather Scent
Nocturne is a leather fragrance from Cygnet Perfumery, launched in 2020 and composed by perfumer Sondrine Kehoe.
Designed for men and women, it opens with luminous citrus and jasmine before settling into a smoky, resinous base of tobacco, woods, and amber.
The top notes of Nocturne bring together yellow mandarin, sambac jasmine, and birch. There is a brightness here that quickly gives way to darker, more shadowy accents.
Blackcurrant, cedar, and clove form the heart. This middle stage is gently fruity and spiced, with a balsamic warmth that connects the freshness of the opening to the depth of the base.
Australian sandalwood, tobacco, and amber make up the base. This rich and creamy layer gives Nocturne its soft leather-like aura and long-lasting comfort.
The fragrance is built around woody, warm spicy, fruity, white floral, tobacco, leather, citrus, amber, powdery, and smoky accords.
It sits close to the skin, making it ideal for evenings, dinners, or cool-weather days when you want understated elegance.
Sondrine Kehoe has crafted a balanced composition that feels contemporary, versatile, and quietly confident.
Those who appreciate supple leather scents, wooded warmth, and soft spice, as well as men and women wanting a cosy, discreetly sexy evening perfume.
Nocturne is a modern classic in the making – a leather fragrance that is both brooding and comfortable, perfect for after-dark wear.
