Zoologist Nightingale
Inspiration
Lantern-soft spring. Silk whispers as you step into a garden where ume (plum) blossoms glow fuchsia against cool air. Nightingale turns that awakening into perfume: a saffron spark and rosy, powder-soft plum blossom unfold like a fan. Beneath, poise and warmth gather — oud and patchouli add grain and shadow, moss and frankincense trace calm reverence, and a gentle ambergris aura makes the whole composition hum. Romance with backbone; vintage poise through a modern lens.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
A silk-sleeved chypre with real personality. The saffron-tinted plum blossom feels plush yet airy; the heart stays romantic without becoming syrupy. The base — oud, moss, incense, ambergris — adds dignified depth and impressive longevity. For lovers of classic structure with modern polish.
