Ex Nihilo Explicite Eau De Parfum 100ml For Unisex

Ex Nihilo Explicite Eau de Parfum 100ml is a sensual, sweet floral fragrance for men and women. It opens with nutmeg and pink pepper, blooms into a heart of praline, Petalia™ and lily of the valley, and settles on a warm base of vanilla, sandalwood and Ambrofix™.

About Ex Nihilo Explicite

Ex Nihilo is a Parisian haute perfumery house founded in 2013 by Benoît Verdier, Sylvie Loday and Olivier Royère. Its name is Latin for "out of nothing", or created from scratch, and its first boutique opened at 352 rue Saint-Honoré in Paris, close to Place Vendôme. The house says its perfumers work with complete creative freedom, without limits on materials or cost. Ex Nihilo is also known for the Osmologue, a technology in its boutiques that lets customers personalise selected fragrances.

Ex Nihilo calls Explicite a "sensual thrill". It is presented as a bold, sensual fragrance that evokes a warm summer night in Paris, an intoxicating scent meant to stir the senses and invite the wearer into a dreamlike, indulgent experience. Perfumer Jordi Fernández paired warm spice with a delicious praline-floral heart and a creamy vanilla-sandalwood base, so it feels sweet, warm and seductive.

What Does Ex Nihilo Explicite Smell Like?

The opening is warm and spicy. Nutmeg (jaiphal) gives a cosy, sweet spice and pink pepper adds a bright, rosy sparkle.

In the heart, praline brings a nutty, caramelised sweetness, while Petalia™ and lily of the valley keep it fresh and floral. It feels like dessert in a flower garden.

In the base, vanilla adds a creamy sweetness, sandalwood gives a smooth, milky warmth and Ambrofix™ brings an ambery glow. The result is sweet, warm and sensual.

Key Ingredients Explained

• Nutmeg: Nutmeg adds a warm, slightly sweet, cosy spice.
• Praline: Praline gives a nutty, caramelised sweetness.
• Petalia: Petalia™ is a modern floral molecule with a fresh, petal-like softness that gives a clean, rosy-floral glow.
• Lily of the Valley: Lily of the valley adds a fresh, dewy, green-floral brightness.
• Vanilla: Vanilla adds a creamy, comforting sweetness.
• Sandalwood: Sandalwood is a creamy, milky wood, much loved in India, that adds smoothness and warmth.

Longevity and Performance

As an Eau de Parfum, it has a higher concentration of perfume oils than an Eau de Toilette, so it lasts well and leaves a noticeable trail. Longevity depends on skin type, weather and the amount applied, but two to four sprays are usually enough. Its vanilla, sandalwood and amber base gives Explicite a warm, sweet trail that is especially attractive in the evening.

When to Wear Explicite

• Date nights: Sensual and sweet.
• Parties: Warm and attractive.
• Autumn and winter: Praline and vanilla feel cosy.
• Summer nights: A light spray works well.
• Shared fragrance: Unisex, for men and women.

Who Is It For?

Explicite is for men and women who love sweet, warm and sensual perfumes with a gourmand touch. For a golden floral amber, try Ex Nihilo Gold Immortals; for a sweet rose with strawberry and pistachio, try Ex Nihilo Spiky Muse.

Why Choose Explicite?

Explicite is a crowd-pleasing sweet scent with niche refinement. The praline and vanilla make it delicious, the florals keep it from feeling heavy and the sandalwood gives it a familiar, creamy warmth. It is a great pick for anyone who wants a seductive evening fragrance.

How to Wear and Layer It

1. Spray on neck, chest and wrists.
2. Two to three sprays are enough for most occasions.
3. Apply on moisturised skin for better longevity.
4. For evenings, a light mist on clothes adds to the trail.

Layering tip: Wear it alone, or layer it with a light sandalwood attar for an even creamier drydown.

Good to Know

Praline is a classic French confection of nuts and caramelised sugar. In perfumery it adds a nutty, sweet gourmand note, and in Explicite it pairs with fresh florals for a sensual balance.

How to Store Your Perfume

Keep your perfume in its box, away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. In Indian weather, avoid leaving it in a car or a steamy bathroom; a cool cupboard or drawer is ideal. Always close the cap tightly after use, as heat and air can change the scent over time.
