Translation: a warm, leathery oud — agarwood and leather at the center, spiced with saffron and rose, sweetened with cacao and caramel over patchouli.
Fragrance Pyramid
Louis Vuitton lists Nouveau Monde's composition as a single blended accord rather than a top/heart/base breakdown:
Notes: Agarwood (Oud), Leather, Cacao, Rose, Saffron, Patchouli, Caramel
Performance
- Longevity: Strong — reviewers consistently report 10-12+ hours on skin.
- Sillage: Moderate-to-strong — noticeable projection for several hours before settling in.
- Projection: 2-3 ft in the opening, arm's-length as it dries down.
Best Occasions & Season
- Fall and winter
- Evenings, special occasions, cold-weather layering
- Men's fragrance
Skip for: light summer daytime wear — this one is rich and warm, not a breezy daytime scent.
