About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Vol de Nuit is a 1933 woody fragrance from Guerlain, built on a powdery iris and green galbanum core. The top opens with a bright citrus burst of bergamot, lemon, orange, mandarin, and orange blossom, sharpened by galbanum and narcissus. As it settles, the heart reveals a complex bouquet: iris, violet, rose, jasmine, and Indonesian carnation, cushioned by aldehydes and a touch of vanilla. The base is earthy and woody, with oakmoss, orris root, sandalwood, spices, and musk. This is a classic, formal scent for collectors who appreciate vintage Guerlain craftsmanship. It suits those who love powdery, green, and earthy profiles, and it wears best in cool weather or evening settings. The interplay of galbanum’s bite and iris’s softness makes it a nuanced, timeless choice.
