Aedes de Venustas

Cierge de Lune Eau de Parfum

Aedes de Venustas Cierge de Lune Eau de Parfum is a floral fragrance for women and men. 

It's an intense and regal niche perfume that captures the essence of starry nights in the deepest desert. Setting the tone is a blooming cactus, delivering a raw and glamorous reinterpretation of the darkest vanilla. This artistic fragrance is cool and limpid like the desert air illuminated by the moon, velvety and sensual like the midnight sky. Cierge de Lune Eau de Parfum draws inspiration from the scent of the mysterious Night-Blooming Cereus Flowering Cactus, also known as the Queen of the Night. The French refer to it as Cierge de Lune, translating to "moon altar candle" a literal translation of the Latin Selenicereus Grandiflorus. Legend has it that Marie Antoinette summoned the botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté at midnight to immortalize the hauntingly fleeting beauty of this New World cactus species, whose spectacular flower only opens after sunset and withers at sunrise. 

Aedes de Venustas Cierge de Lune Eau de Parfum surprises with an exciting olfactory range, from crystalline high notes to a deep nocturnal groan of spicy Vanilla, with sensual nuances of Incense. Woodier and more amber-like than its Tahitian counterpart, with a hint of tawny Leather, this Vanilla forms the heart of the composition, revealing its darker side. A breath of Hedione transforms the delightful pod into a cactus flower, whose pristine petals are enriched by Ylang-Ylang. To add vivacity and luminosity to the fragrance, a sparkling Pink Pepper casts glimmers of moonlight into the velvety blend, while Black Pepper weaves an intriguing thread, transitioning from mineral, incense-like effects - a nod to the olfactory theme of the Aedes de Venustas line - to resinous, smoky, and Dark Chocolate notes. In a final metamorphosis, musky Ambrox underlined by a fluffy Suede accord transforms the nocturnal bloom into a twilight second skin. Cierge de Lune Eau de Parfum is not just a perfume but a true olfactory journey with a sensual trail and long-lasting, deep notes that linger on the skin for a long time!
