About Ноктюрн (Nocturne)
Nocturne, an After-Dark Floral in Vintage Style
Ноктюрн (Nocturne) by Novaya Zarya (The New Dawn) is a women's oriental floral dating from the 1980s.
Composed by Alla Belfer, it moves from verdant freshness towards a rich bouquet before softening into amber woods.
Green notes, bergamot and aldehydes open the composition. The impression is cool and lifted, with a gently effervescent citrus-green edge.
Rose and chrysanthemum form the core, coloured by artemisia, tagetes and labdanum. The result is floral yet distinctly herbal and slightly balsamic.
Sandalwood, amber, musk and patchouli provide the foundation. The finish is mellow, powdery and comforting, with a dry, earthy touch.
The profile is chiefly woody, green and aromatic, with fresh spice, amber, rose, herbal, citrus and floral nuances throughout. Its score of 4.36 out of 5, based on 187 ratings, reflects lasting fondness for its 1980s character.
For wearers who favour established oriental florals with presence, favouring bitter herbs, generous roses and a cosy amber base.
Nocturne will suit those seeking a vintage evening floral: verdant at first, then warm, musky and quietly resinous.
