Named in honor of the primeval Greek Goddess of Night. A scent reflecting inky black skies and eternal desolation. Night-blooming jasmine, warmed by myrrh, lifted by the promise of rose.

A brace of loaded pistols
He carried night and day;
He never robbed a poor man
Upon the king’s highway;
But what he’d taken from the rich,
Like Turpin and Black Bess,
He always did divide it
With the widow in distress.
Stand and deliver! Vetiver with gardenia, blood red rose, night-blooming jasmine, a dash of cinnamon and a faint hint of leather
Reminiscent of hothouse blooms on a humid night, ripe, but touched with decay. Sweet honeysuckle and jasmine with a hint of lemon and spice.
In ancient India it was believed that a specific combination of flower petals, when strewn across a couple’s bed, would amplify desire and sexual pleasure. This blend is a blend of the same floral essences, refined into a gloriously sinful perfume blend. Frangipani, with rose, tuberose, and jasmine.
But there were times when the wind blew from beyond the wall, bringing with it the smell of mint and thyme and redcurrants, and at those times there were strange colors seen in the flames in the fireplaces in the village.
The scent of the winds beyond the wall: bluebonnet, passion flower, freesia, jasmine tea, mint, thyme, and redcurrant.

This is the most beautiful combination of Jasmine and Rose I think there is. It’s my unicorn, I’ve been seeking it since I first got in to BPAL, and a friend mailed Nyx to me as a Halloween Cheer-me-up present…. It smells exactly like a product Lush used to make called Fever, which smelled so heavenly. This is a scent that reminds you of old Hollywood. Lipstick, roses, and jasmine. It’s glorious. The Myrrh ties it all in. I’m going to have to get a bottle! The best thing is, my friend didn’t even know about my long time search for all things Fever. This is the perfect balance of Rose and Jasmine. I don’t know how you do it, Beth.

This is a nice, medium weight, romantic floral. It starts out very strong on a lemony, sharp jasmine note, but this calms down and blends with a soft rose. The myrrh adds some depth and a bit of resinous sweetness. It’s in the same family as Black Rose and Obsidian Widow to my nose, but is lighter and more classic.

Wanted an every day jasmine that wasn’t overpowering. Found it. I’ve gone through my imp that I got in November, so needless to say, I’m getting a full bottle. 😀 The myrrh really makes this something special, and my obsession with incense just helps it along the way.

I liked this one. The jasmine was nice, not too overpowering and cloying as it is want to do sometimes. I dries very nicely into a light jasmine smell that’s not too powdery or flowery.

This is one of my all time favorite scents. It’s sexy in a subtle way, not too forward, lasts a decently long time.

With a name like Nyx and the dark amber color of the juice I was weary of the sample I received. I was expecting a stink bomb. Instead of a heady dark scent it was a rather lovely jasmine that has had some of its sharpness clipped by a slight herby note that I assume is the myrrh. This I think is brilliant because I tend to avoid jasmine perfumes because they come across too shrill.
