Nuit de Meg\u00e8ve (A Night in Megeves) is an olfactory love letter to ski chalet parties, refreshing cold mountain air and chance meetings with gorgeous, green-eyed girls. <\/span><\/p>\n

Back in the 1930\u2019s, perfumer Albert Fouquet lived a lavish existence, complete with ski trips to Switzerland and an on-call tailor who would travel with him and fashion bespoke sportswear on the spot. \u00a0Skiing was the new \u201cIt\u201d sport for the wealthy and well-heeled, and soon M. Fouquet was being invited to opulent apr\u00e8s-ski parties all over the ultra-exclusive resort town of Megeves. <\/span><\/p>\n

One such evening he met a mysterious woman named Annicke, who entranced him to such a degree that when Albert Fouquet returned to Paris he immediately created the perfume Nuit de Megeves to capture her spirit and the night they met. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nuit de Meg\u00e8ve has a very European feel to it at the start \u2013 a very subtle layer of grapefruit and petitgrain, dusted with dry cloves imparts a brisk crisp edge to the scent, similar to the bracing chill of fresh mountain air at high altitude. <\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The heart is where the romance begins \u2013 you empathize immediately with Albert Fouquet\u2019s longing for his mystery woman\u2013 there\u2019s a wistful fondness infusing the entire fragrance, as if he was still pining for her as he created the perfume.<\/span><\/p>\n

An orris note makes Nuit de Meg\u00e8ve wear like a skin scent \u2013 there\u2019s a little powder present, but the heart of this scent wants you to picture the nape of a woman\u2019s neck instead of an antique cosmetics compact. The coffee accord is a reminder of how late you\u2019ll stay up just to keep talking to a woman who knows she has your complete and undivided attention. <\/span><\/p>\n

By contrast, the drydown is very muted and reserved, with pale traces of vetiver and tobacco rounding out the fragrance. \u00a0You can visualize Albert Fouquet going for a walk in a meadow with a pack of Dunhill cigarettes to get his mind off this woman, but what he wants is just to return to the evening they first met and have it all happen again. The base of this scent is a quick portrait of a man lost in reverie over a woman he knows he\u2019ll never see again. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nuit de Meg\u00e8ve is a perfume expertly tailored with a delicious, vulnerable ache that tells a story of love found and lost in a single night, and it is to be worn by both men and women.<\/span><\/p>\n

But gentlemen, take note: this is a perfume your heart will recognize before anyone else will. \u00a0And that a woman you may meet soon will know immediately that Nuit de Meg\u00e8ve is a scent that says she owns yours completely from now on. <\/span>
