Louis Vuitton Nuit De Feu Review – Jacques Cavallier; 2020

Oh, Louis, we didn’t know you had it in you. For 2020’s Louis Vuitton Nuit De Feu, Jacques Cavallier channeled the darkest, raunchiest elements of his palette to give us what is arguably the finest of the brand’s current compositions. Here’s a link to a recent episode of Love At First Scent in which it was reviewed: Louis Vuitton Nuit De Feu review.

It takes a perfumer of Cavallier’s skill and experience to know when to stop messing with a formula. In Nuit De Feu, he takes a superb frankincense note – as though plucking an angel from the dome of a Florentine cathedral – and filters it through precisely the sort of feral, enigmatic, leathery animalics we’ve come not to expect from the Vuitton catalogue. And then he leaves well enough alone. As someone once said, “Burn, baby, burn.”
