About Белая Ночь (White night)
White Night, the 1929 Floral of Pale Summer Light
Белая Ночь (White night) by Северное сияние is a women’s floral fragrance dating from 1929. It belongs to a period that prized clear-cut garden notes and airy freshness.
Lily of the valley and forget-me-not open the scent, lilac, hyacinth, jasmine and citrus form the heart, with woody notes, civet and musk as the base.
On first impression the perfume is cool and dewy. Lily of the valley offers its familiar glassy purity, and forget-me-not lends a faint, watercolour-like softness in keeping with the name.
The heart is a compact posy. Lilac provides powdery sweetness, hyacinth contributes a greener, slightly sharp vitality, jasmine rounds things out, and citrus lifts the whole arrangement.
Beneath, the foundation is mellow. The woods are understated rather than dry, allowing civet and musk to create a skin-like warmth remembered from perfumes of the late 1920s.
The declared accords — floral, green, fresh, woody, white floral and fresh spicy — sum it up well. This is not a statement scent, but one meant to sit close and unfold gently.
With an average of 4.6 out of 5 from 5 ratings, it remains a favourite among devotees of historic florals who value transparency and period character over power.
It will suit admirers of lilac and hyacinth, collectors of early twentieth-century perfumes, and wearers who prefer soft, green, romantic florals.
From sparkling green buds to a civet-and-musk hush, White Night is a faithful 1929 floral. Tender, slightly wistful, and quietly distinctive.
