Established in Paris in 1986 by esteemed parfumeuse Patricia de Nicolaï, whose great-grandfather Pierre-François Pascal Guerlain founded Guerlain 150 years earlier, Nicolaï remains a family-run business today. Recent fragrances include Cococabana (with notes of ylang-ylang, palm, vanilla and tonka flower), Kiss Me Tender (orange blossom, almond, jasmine and cloves) and Musc Monoï (lemon, magnolia, coconut and sandalwood).
