In this new episode of On Tour, Benoît Verdier presents, exclusively for Nose, Blue Talisman Extrait. To celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2023, Ex Nihilo unveiled Blue Talisman, a floral, woody, and musky fragrance conceived as an olfactory lucky charm. Today, Benoît Verdier introduces its new Extrait version.
Blue Talisman is an iconic fragrance from the house of Ex Nihilo. It is all about dosage, and the secret behind its intensity lies in a striking figure: 30%. By pushing the concentration to Extrait de Parfum level—the highest ever reached in the entire collection—Ex Nihilo does more than simply intensify its formula; it rewrites the rules of the game. The fragrance shifts into a new dimension.
Its texture becomes denser, almost fusing with the skin. The composition gains depth and relief, revealing previously unseen facets, while the sillage—majestic in scale—develops exceptional projection and longevity. A true signature for connoisseurs.
The Extrait: Solar, Bright, Sparkling
The Base: Texture, Addiction, Sillage
In the base, the composition shifts register. Vanilla and sandalwood bring warmth and texture—an almost creamy softness that anchors the fragrance to the skin and gives it the addictive quality described by Benoît Verdier.
Amber woods complete the structure, closing the composition with a sillage the house describes as “hypnotic.” A base signature designed to leave a lasting imprint and extend its presence over time.
The Art of Wearing Blue Talisman Extrait
Blue Talisman Extrait is unisex and designed to be worn across all seasons. Its solar opening gives it a distinctly summery character, while the depth of its base—vanilla, sandalwood, and amber—ensures an equally fitting presence in autumn and winter.
