Ex Nihilo - The Hedonist

THE HEDONIST was created as a journey without any final destination. It was designed by perfumer Jordi Fernández without compromise, from the most sustainable and technologically advanced ingredients including Akigalawood©: an exclusive natural captive resulting from bioscience. An energizing slice of Ginger spices up Bergamot and triggers a fresh thrill. Deep notes of Cedarwood associated with Vetiver from Haiti bring strength, while Musks melt with Akigalawood© and leave an intoxicating signature on the skin. In the end, the ultimate experience is simplicity.

Featured notes
Learn more about the top, middle, and bottom notes in this fragrance.
Cedar wood’s bright, tangy, and dry, almost juniper-like feel is a mainstay of men’s cologne. It’s dignified character evokes both the great outdoors and cultured city sophistication. Cedar can also be a major or minor note in perfume, as it blends exceptionally well, so it’s always appropriate to wear year-round, day or night, for a polished, but laid-back effect. Cedar pairs best with sandalwood, vetiver, leather, and light floral and citrus notes.

    I wanted to like it more
    Maybe I just don’t get it. It’s spicy but not in ways that I found especially enjoyable? Like spicy and clean. It’s fine.
