It’s possible that those who have been reading posts on my website for a few years may remember an article about the DKNY Be Delicious perfume, for which the American jeweller Martin Katz created a special bejewelled bottle. And now once again we are witnessing the unification of a dizzying scent with the bright shine of diamonds in a special gift set from Ex Nihilo named Diamond Wood.

Ex Nihilo Paris is a premium perfume brand which has eight finished aromas in its collection. They can be used in their original form or adapted for yourself by choosing an additional component and its dosage. The Ex Nihilo boutique originally opened its doors to true connoisseurs of perfumery in the historical centre of Paris at the end of 2013. Last year, a new retail space was opened in Harrods, the British department store of luxury goods. It was precisely for this prestigious mall that the Diamond Wood scent, with its notes of agarwood, rose and benzoin, was created.
