Vol de Nuit by Guerlain is a Woody fragrance for women. Vol de Nuit was launched in 1933. The nose behind this fragrance is Jacques Guerlain. Top notes are Galbanum, Narcissus, Bergamot, Orange Blossom, Lemon, Orange and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are iris, Narcissus, Aldehydes, Vanilla, Violet, Indonesian Carnation, Rose and Jasmine; base notes are Oakmoss, Orris Root, Sandalwood, Spices and Musk.

Vol de Nuit or ‘night-flying’ was created in 1933. It was named after Antoine Saint Exuperys second novel Night Flight, a fragrant story of love and romance of the first years of aviation. The dark amber colored bottle has a relief of a moving aircraft propeller. The composition is based on balance between the woodsy and cold notes, as nothing else could more staunchly impress the depth of the dark skies and feeling of ascending. The top notes are bergamot, galbanum and petit grain; the heart reveals jasmine, daffodil and spices; the base combines earthy woods, iris, vanilla, amber and woodsy notes. Vol de Nuit was created by Jacques Guerlain.

Mitsouko Guerlain there is a 8 ml vintage Spray parfum by my bed, like the bottle in this picture, and I keep finding that I unstopper that stopper, budged though it is in that bottle, and, recently, keep wearing it while I sleep.
It is a doctored edition, I will confess (and I know that that is outrageous.)
There are several different vintage parfums in there: a touch of parfum de toilette, one drop of ylang ylang oil cause you know  I do that, and a significant amount of added bergamot.
But last night I got it to exactly how I want it.
Remixed her up a treat, to the proportions that I think I remember.
Yes, she can be witchy, damp and sour-tempered; yes she can be musty.
But when you get that golden ray effect, that Chinese empress pillow of velvet, the rueful, gustatory glow of the citrus and the mosses, then I suppose it makes sense why this is currently my night-time companion.
Duncan is always asleep.
