Does this fragrance still exist in the current L'Artisan Parfumeur lineup?+−
No, Amour Nocturne has been discontinued. It was originally part of the Explosions d'Émotions collection and can now generally only be found through secondary market sellers or decant sites.
Is this scent more masculine or feminine?+−
It is marketed as a unisex fragrance. While the caramel, vanilla, and white orchid provide a traditional sweetness, the cedarwood and prominent gunpowder notes give it a smoky, industrial edge that appeals to all genders.
When is the best time to wear Amour Nocturne?+−
Most users find it best suited for fall and winter. The "burnt" quality of the charred wood and the density of the fig milk and beeswax can feel overwhelming in high summer heat, making it a favorite for evening leisure or nights out during colder months.
Is the gunpowder note very aggressive?+−
The gunpowder provides a metallic, flinty sharpness, but it is balanced by the creamy fig milk and caramel. It acts more as a smoky seasoning that prevents the fragrance from becoming too sweet rather than a harsh, overpowering chemical smell.
