A change of perfume is the perfect way to ring in a new year, and if you’re looking for something truly unique, we say, Ex Nihilo is worth a spritz. “It’s a Parisian perfume house with three founders from Sweden, America and France, so the brand is something of a labour of love with scents based more on personal preferences than trends,” explains our Fragrance Buyer Adella Family. “Midnight Special is pretty wonderful, as is Jasmine Fauve – which smells exactly as the name suggests; but my favourite has to be Atlas Fever, which boasts a vibrant and unexpected blend of sandalwood, pink berries and tonka bean.”
