NOCTRA 020
Lavender. Plum. Truffle.
NOCTRA 020 is a fragrance of controlled contradictions. Sweet and earthy. Fresh and dark. It opens bright and ends somewhere entirely different.
Lavender leads — cool, aromatic, clean. Not soft or sleepy. Electric, almost metallic, with the clean authority of something freshly charged. Pink Pepper follows immediately, adding a bright, slightly sweet spiciness that gives the opening an instant, attention-commanding energy. This is not a gentle beginning. It is a jolt.
The heart is where 020 reveals its most seductive side. Plum arrives — fruity, rich, slightly tart — sweet enough to be compelling, restrained enough to remain masculine. Geranium adds a green, slightly rosy complexity that keeps the composition grounded and interesting. Together they create a heart that is playful and refined in equal measure. This is 020's most complimented phase — the moment people lean in.
The base is where depth takes over. Cedar and Vetiver build a dry, smoky, woody foundation with real authority. Truffle — subtle, earthy, quietly luxurious — runs through the base like a vein of something rare beneath the surface. Oak adds further richness and structure. The dry down is an earthy, woody, lavender-led composition that stays close to skin with a quiet persistence that rewards those near enough to notice.
Bold without aggression. Modern without apology.
