Spiky Muse by Ex Nihilo is a modern rose fragrance with a playful twist—juicy fruit, soft florals, and creamy woods layered in a bright, easy-to-wear style. It opens with strawberry, bergamot, and pink pepper, where the bergamot adds an almost tart edge that keeps the fruit crisp and sparkling rather than sugary.At the heart, rose absolute pairs with a soft pistachio accord that adds a subtle creamy warmth without turning fully gourmand. The base settles into smooth woods—cedar, Akigalawood™, and Ambrofix—rounded by tonka bean for a warm, polished finish.Perfume Notes Top: Upcycled natural Strawberry, Bergamot, Pink Pepper Middle: Rose absolutes, Pistachio accord Base: Cedarwood, Akigalawood™, Ambrofix™, Tonka bean Perfumer: Louise TurnerAvailable as fragrance samples and decants in glass spray atomizers.
