Best Club de Nuit Bling by Armaf Alternatives & Similar Perfumes

A whimsical, rich and fluffy treat inspired by choux à la crème pastry and “chouchou”, the French term of endearment. This cream puff perfume is conjured with accords of cocoa, caramel, vanilla cream and sandalwood. A spritz of citrus puts a little pucker in the sweetness.

Theme N°29 : Hesperimental

An experiment in citruses effect, ITABAÏA is the latest addition to the hesperidic genre in Pierre Guillaume's collection. It holds fresh and fruity notes that are barely concealed by the wisps of an illicit spliff: it has a neo-chypre air thanks to the hemp and vanilla accords.

Like it’s name; ITABAÏA was created by the perfumer with elegance and mystery in mind. Both the word and the perfume impresses with an exotic sound and smell, evoking Brazil, dance, a divinity…

Pierre Guillaume was inspired by the strength and energy associated with Capoeira; the Afro-Brazilian art that combines dance and wrestling. The perfume conjures the Brazilian beach of Itacaré, where dance warriors perform an acrobatic and solar ballet to the rhythm of Berimbau and feverish songs, dazzling the spectator with power, grace and harmony.

Like the sand dispersed in the wind by the acrobatic movements of the Capoeira dancers at sunset, ITABAÏA is a citrus heat wave coloured with vanilla and hemp. Its floral-fruity heart releases the green powdery scrolls of the Jurema flower tinged with a hint of passion fruit.

An exotic & sunny mix with flowers from India and Morocco.

The Sniff on this perfume "103 is a lavish, vivacious floral which creates a little bubble of summer around you as soon as you apply it; it’s full of such happy vibes. Wear it if you are craving some summer sunshine, to celebrate that the sun actually has come out for once, or if you just want to feel all girly and carefree....To our minds, the base of 103 is the real triumph. Once all the shouting of those big white florals have died down, and the overly-sweet-but-very-transient phase has passed, what we are left with is a really very enjoyable musk and jasmine petal scent. And, if you like your jasmine on the floral side, then you’ll find the base absolutely delightful – we certainly did."

Intoxicating and smooth, the Damascena rose radiates throughout. A twist of pink pepper brings a touch of freshness. The velvety touch of rose petals combined with vanilla creates a luxurious veil. 

Furthermore, there is a dark, green undertone from the davana herb which contrasts with the silkiness of the rose.

In 203 sweet berries meet rose and radiant amber.

Light, sand, dreams of faraway places. This creamy tropical floral is built around insinuating jasmine sambac and tiare, fleshed out with coconut and vanilla. A sun lotion accord conjures bare skin gleaming on the beach, while sandalwood lends comfortable milkiness.

A sweet, ambery perfume with many shades of sweet packed into a single formula: heliotrope, vanilla, caramel, toffee and benzoin, all interlinked with a soft sandalwood theme.

A tribute to the scents of Colombia, this extrait de parfum suggests a late-night dinner for two under the stars. A gourmand dance of aromas is carried on the warm breeze: coffee, rum, chocolates. Powdery, pillowy vanilla and iris blur into vetiver and sandalwood for a sumptuous dream.

Osmanthus in this perfume is harvested deep within Guilin province in China. Absolute d’Osmanthe is a modern take on the centuries old essence. The flowers bloom between October and November filling the entire valley with a dreamy fragrance. For the past 2000 years, this fragrant flower with an aroma reminiscent of apricot has been part of perfumers pallette. 

In the aromatic universe, osmanthus sits somewhere between tart, punchy tobacco, strong tea, and animalic oud.

Perris is fascinated by nature’s fragrant treasures and make perfume materials THE story of each of their perfume. So much so, that they experiment with the same perfume material in different perfume architectures: eau de parfum and extait.

How does this work? In Absolue d’Osmanthe EdP, osmanthus is of course the main theme, but balance is shifted to the top (proportion-wise there is more pepper and jasmine in the blend). So the EdP is dry and spicy.

The extrait version of Absolue d’Osmanthe is heavier on the base notes of vanilla and labdanum. The extrait is creamier and more leathery compared to the spicy EdP.
