Ex Nihilo blue talisman, sample

Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman is a mysterious, aquatic fragrance that evokes the allure of hidden depths and ancient secrets. Launched in 2019, this unisex scent is crafted by perfumer Olivier Pescheux, blending crisp marine notes with warm, resinous undertones to create a captivating and enigmatic aroma.

The opening bursts with a zesty fusion of bergamot and grapefruit, bright as sunlight piercing through ocean waves, followed by a fresh hint of sea salt that mirrors the briny breeze of a coastal cliff. The heart unfolds into a rich, aquatic core of ambroxan and jasmine sambac, evoking the depth and mystery of the ocean floor, while patchouli adds an earthy, grounding edge.

As the fragrance settles, a base of ambergris, sandalwood, and vanilla bean emerges, wrapping the scent in a warm, luxurious embrace. The ambergris brings a marine depth, while the sandalwood and vanilla add a creamy, sweet finish—like the glow of a hidden treasure chest. A touch of white musk lingers softly, leaving a trail of subtle allure, as if the scent itself is a talisman for adventure.

Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman is a scent of exploration and intrigue, designed for those who seek the unknown. The bottle, with its sleek, blue glass design and gold accents, reflects the fragrance’s aquatic essence, while the minimalist label adds a touch of modernity. Perfect for evening wear or special occasions, it’s an olfactory journey to the heart of the ocean—mysterious, alluring, and utterly unforgettable.
