Patricia de Nicolai's Inspiration:
"The effervescence of New York - the energy, the streets that never sleep - inspired this scent. With its peppery top and opulent patchouli base, I wanted to capture the strength and soul of this extraordinary city."

Made in France

The French term bien-être translates as well-being, and can be defined as follows: “Pleasant state resulting from the satisfaction of the body's needs and calmness of mind”. Since its inception in 1989, New York has brought perfume lovers to this state - and its complex layers continue to enchant us.

Look and you shall find: a citrus cologne top, ambery base notes as well as mossy ones, an aromatic structure and a chypric one too. New York smells like a brilliant vortex - a frisson - all of its notes in movement, much like the energy of its namesake city - the one that does not sleep. It appeals to lovers of traditional perfumery, drawing from familiarity: Chanel’s first masculine scent Pour Monsieur (1955) - an oakmoss-laden chypre, the spicy flamboyance of Habit Rouge (Guerlain, 1965), and the citrus satisfaction of Eau Sauvage (Dior, 1966) - skilfully synthesising the very best of these fragrances to come into its own. Its patchouli heart takes the scent into a new direction, finishing on a faithful oakmoss base that is rightfully bold and a source of great complexity. Great radiance is set against brilliant darkness. A fragrance made in a classical manner, approximating the timeless as close as possible, this one is for the textbooks of fine perfumery.
