Nuit de Bakélite by Naomi Goodsir: A Unisex Ode to Timeless Allure
Nuit de Bakélite stands as a striking testament to Naomi Goodsir’s mastery of blending heritage and modernity, a unisex fragrance that defies conventions with its rich, enigmatic character.
Crafted around the evocative essence of Bakélite—the world’s first synthetic plastic, a material steeped in industrial history and artisanal charm—the scent opens with a bold interplay of smoky, resinous notes. A hint of cistus labdanum, with its warm, ambered depth, merges with the crisp, slightly green edge of juniper berry, creating an initial impression that is both rugged and refined. As it evolves, the heart reveals a velvety core: the creamy warmth of sandalwood weaves through a whisper of vanilla, softening the intensity without losing its complexity, while a touch of vetiver adds an earthy, grounded dimension that lingers like a shadow.

Perfect for both women and men, Nuit de Bakélite transcends gender, offering a scent that is as versatile as it is memorable. Whether worn during the day to add depth to everyday moments or as a signature for evening, it leaves an indelible trail of sophistication, inviting curiosity and admiration in equal measure. In every spritz, it captures the spirit of timeless elegance—raw, polished, and utterly unforgettable.
