Comforting Functional Fragrances

The Nostalgia Collection by The Nue Co. Harnesses Neuroscience

Gourmand scents are naturally comforting and evocative of sweet moments in time, and The Nostalgia Collection by The Nue Co. goes one step further by "harnessing the power of gourmand and neuroscience to create the ultimate sense of comfort."

In all, there are three new comforting functional fragrances built for layering and designed to adapt to the wearer's unique body chemistry. First Milk, inspired by the earliest of scent memories, incorporates notes of almond milk, tonka bean, French vanilla and cashmere woods. Past Time features coconut milk, rhubarb and amber musk, while Otherwhere is said to smell like skin, but better, thanks to its intoxicating combination of green cardamom, oud, almond blossom, violet and caramel.
