Night perfumes: scents for evenings and special moments

Evening is the time to wear something a little more daring. Night perfumes are usually richer, warmer and more seductive than daytime scents, with deeper base notes that last for hours and leave a memorable trail. Think amber, vanilla, oud, leather, tobacco, spices, dark florals and sensual musks. Whether you're going on a date, to a party or to a dinner, a night fragrance adds confidence and mystery.

Typical evening notes

• Amber and vanilla: warm, enveloping sweetness.
• Oud and incense: deep, smoky and opulent.
• Leather and tobacco: bold and sophisticated.
• Spices: cinnamon, cardamom and pepper for heat and energy.
• White florals: jasmine and tuberose for a heady, glamorous feel.

How to wear an evening scent

1. Apply to moisturised skin, as fragrance lasts longer on hydrated skin.
2. Spray on pulse points such as the neck, wrists and behind the ears.
3. Two or three sprays are usually enough for rich, intense perfumes.
4. Carry a travel spray to refresh later in the evening.

From day to night

If you don't want to change scents completely, try layering: add a warm vanilla or amber over your daytime fragrance to make it deeper for the evening.
