The Discovery Set

Five 2 ml sprays of our most-loved scents - Velvet Oud, Iris Noir, Amber Absolute, Fig & Smoke and Vanille Obscure. Every set includes a $35 credit toward your first full bottle, so finding your signature costs nothing in the end.

The house of Nocturne

Made after dark, for after dark

Nocturne began in a small city atelier with one idea: that the best fragrances aren't loud, they're low - worn close, noticed slowly. We blend in tiny lots, age every batch before bottling, and refill your flacon so the vessel outlives the scent.

  • Blended & aged in small batches
  • Refillable heavy-glass flacons
  • Cruelty-free, never over-produced

What our wearers say

★★★★★

“Velvet Oud is the first scent that has ever made a stranger stop me on the street. It lasts all day and only gets better as it dries down.”
Marisa D.Verified buyer

★★★★★

“I bought the Discovery Set to find my signature and ended up loving three of the five. The $35 credit paid for itself. This is how you sell perfume.”
Priya K.Verified buyer

★★★★★

“Cuir Velours is the real thing - a proper extrait, dark and animalic without being harsh. Refilling my bottle instead of buying new packaging sealed it for me.”
Julian M.Verified buyer
