LORE
/ˈnøkːɛn/ noun (Norwegian and Swedish) 

var. Näcken, Nix

A shapeshifting spirit of lakes, rivers, and ponds. Known for luring the unwary with the sound of a violin carried over the water, or by appearing as a pale horse at the shoreline. Its true form is described as moss‑covered, with yellow eyes and sharp teeth. In folklore it may act as a trickster or as a figure to be bargained with, its music shifting from peril to gift when met with the right offering.

OLFACTORY FAMILY
Coniferous, Woody, Mossy, Green, Fruity, Aromatic, Fougère

PERFUMER’S NOTES
 “Nøkken started from an outdoor image that feels almost physical, the way wind and soil and stillness can rearrange your head without you noticing. I wanted something unvarnished and close to the ground, almost botanical in how direct it is. The seaweed CO2 brings in salt, damp earth, and a bit of sulfur, which keeps everything rooted in something real and imperfect. Even with all that calm, there’s a slight distortion running through it. It has the kind of solitude that carries an ominous unease, like a Nordic noir. I wanted it to feel like stepping into a place you’re not meant to be, but you’re there anyway, breathing it in.”
